Earthshine-Robotic

Revolutionizing manufacturing and science in Low Earth Orbit.

Dual use space platforms.

At Astracene, Inc., we are developing robotic platforms to lower the barriers to entry to performing science and manufacturing in space.

Earthshine-Robotic

Astracene’s robotic, uncrewed space platform fills a vital niche in the space ecosystem. Hosting science, manufacturing, and Earth observation payloads at a fraction of the cost, while boosting the LEO economy.

Why microgravity? The absence of gravity and convection can create novel or purer structures for products from semiconductors to exotic fiber optic cables to pharmaceuticals.

How it works

The Earthshine-Robotic platform lives on orbit, and can permanently host heavy manufacturing equipment. Feedstock is delivered to the platform, and product is returned to Earth.

Later, alternate versions of the platform may include an inflatable shroud for unique customer needs.
