Starfish Space is helping advance the future of in-space servicing and orbital operations through NASA’s latest small satellite missions.
Launched aboard SpaceX’s Transporter-18 rideshare mission, Starfish Space’s Otter 24C spacecraft will demonstrate autonomous technologies for inspecting inoperable satellites in low Earth orbit — including advanced propulsion, navigation, guidance, and computer-vision systems.
The mission is expected to begin satellite inspections in 2027, providing valuable data for the future of in-space servicing, satellite assistance, and orbital debris management.
A meaningful step toward making space infrastructure more accessible, autonomous, and sustainable.
