In-space operations and services
Delivering services to space infrastructures, directly in orbit
The way we engage and make the most out of space is evolving rapidly, with more complex and articulated infrastructure deployed across several increasingly congested – and sometimes contested - orbits. Exotrail solutions are designed to help users better exploit space assets, in a safe and more sustainable way.
A multipurpose constellations grow, networks expand, and multi-orbit systems thrive, in-orbit services requiring Rendezvous Proximity Operations and Docking (RPOD) are becoming a fundamental complement for their efficient use.
use cases
Satellite Inspection
Close and precise on-demand inspection allows to gain critical insights into the health and status of your satellite. From diagnosing potential anomalies to verifying external conditions, this service enhances your ability to maintain reliable operations.
Life
Extension
Reduce the need for premature replacements, optimize your investments, and continue delivering value from your existing assets. Extend the operational lifetime of your satellites leveraging the spacevan™ propulsion and servicing capabilities.
End-of-Life Management
Ensure responsible disposal of satellites at the end of their operational life. Our solutions aims at mitigating orbital debris risks, and contributing to building a more sustainable and safer environment for space assets.
A spacevan™ designed for RPOD
Today, we develop spacecraft for last-mile delivery and payload hosting, enabling In-Orbit Demonstration (IOD) and Validation (IOV) in both LEO and GEO.
Building on the heritage of these spacevan™ products, the spacevan™-RPOD is being designed to meet operators’ evolving infrastructure needs, leveraging our expertise and partnerships with leading European players. Exotrail is notably growing these new capabilities through a contract with French Space Agency (CNES).
The substantial delta-V capabilities and adaptable interfaces of the spacevan™ RPOD unlock tailored missions across LEO, GEO, and beyond.
Let’s build the future of space logistics.
