Axiom Space is building the world's first commercial space station, replacing the ISS with private infrastructure for research, manufacturing, and tourism.
Axiom Space is a commercial space company founded in 2016 by former NASA ISS program manager Michael Suffredini, with a mission to build and operate the world's first private space station. The company is executing a phased strategy that begins with attaching commercial modules to the International Space Station before the ISS is retired, then operating as a standalone commercial station in orbit. Axiom has already launched private astronaut missions to the ISS, generating revenue from space tourism and research while building toward its permanent station. The company raised over $350M and has contracts with NASA, ESA, and commercial customers for astronaut training, microgravity research, and manufacturing capabilities in space. Axiom Space is also developing next-generation spacesuits for NASA's Artemis Moon program. As the ISS approaches its planned decommissioning in 2030, Axiom is positioned to be the primary successor commercial platform for scientific research, manufacturing of materials impossible to produce on Earth, and private human spaceflight.
Astroscale is the leading commercial provider of orbital debris removal and satellite life extension services to address the growing space debris crisis.
Astroscale is a Japanese space sustainability company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Tokyo, with the mission of securing long-term sustainable use of space by removing orbital debris and extending satellite lifetimes. The company developed proprietary docking technology that enables its servicer spacecraft to rendezvous with and capture defunct satellites for deorbit. Astroscale completed the first in-space demonstration of debris capture technology with its ELSA-d mission and has secured contracts with JAXA, ESA, and commercial satellite operators for active debris removal services. The company raised over $300M and operates offices across Japan, UK, US, and Israel, making it a globally distributed commercial space services provider. As low Earth orbit becomes increasingly congested with defunct satellites and rocket bodies, regulators in major spacefaring nations are establishing debris mitigation and removal requirements that create a growing commercial market. Astroscale is positioned as the category leader in orbital debris removal with demonstrated flight heritage and government partnerships.
