Orbit Fab- Gas Stations in Space™ - Working For a Sustainable Space Economy!!

 







THE LAST PLACE YOU WANT TO RUN OUT OF FUEL IS SPACE


Orbit Fab is a Colorado based company that's going to change humanity's future forever and help make Space Economy Sustainable!!

Orbit Fab describes their mission and vision as:-

OUR MISSION To Build the In-Space Propellant Supply Chain OUR VISION A Bustling In-Space Economy Supporting Permanent Jobs in Space

Why is Orbit Fab a company with a noble vision for the future?

 Orbit Fab's Vision is- "Orbit Fab believes we need a bustling in-space economy before we can have permanent jobs in space."

  Satellites don't get any refuels in Space and thus, they become useless and often form a part of the Space junk and debris problem. Orbit Fab wants to help by providing refuels to the satellites so that they can continue the mission or generate more revenue for the satellite operators. Orbit Fab refueling service architecture consists of tankers in various orbits, and shuttles that will deliver fuel from those tankers to client spacecraft. 
    Thus, in the long term, Orbit Fab aims to be a key player in helping Spaceflights be longer by providing fueling services in Space!

Orbit Fab and Astroscale have teamed up to break the single-use satellite paradigm with the first purchase of Gas Stations in Space™ refueling services.

Under the partnership, Orbit Fab's shuttle will refuel Astroscale’s fleet of Life Extension In-Orbit (LEXI™) spacecraft in geostationary orbit (GEO) between 2028 and 2035.

Orbit Fab is not just going to make the first Gas Station in Space™ !! It has already grabbed some first of the world records as listed on their website-

* First-ever commercially available in-space fueling port (branded RAFTI™)

* First-ever propellant depot operating in Low Earth Orbit, Tanker-001 Tenzing

       ---> 6 months from concept to hardware handover

* First private company to resupply the International Space Station with water

      ----> Accomplished within a year of founding, and meeting NASA’s strict guidelines for crew-rated systems

* Astroscale's LEXI spacecraft, the world's first operational, commercial satellite designed to be refueled, will be equipped with the RAFTI interface.

* First company to have investments from both Lockheed Martin Ventures and Northrop Grumman.


Thus, because of Orbit Fab's innovative and revolutionary vision, spacecraft are no longer restricted to the fuel they are launched with. Orbit Fab delivers the fuel and other materials that are required, where and when they are needed, to enable business models never before thought possible.
