Next-level autonomy is on the way: with our recent @AFResearchLab contract, we’re advancing next-gen ARPOD technology that transforms RPO into intelligent, adaptive on-orbit servicing, accelerating the shift toward smarter, more independent space operations.

These capabilities will strengthen our upcoming U.S. Space Force refueling mission and support its on-track progress toward launch in 2026.

What makes a house a home? For us, it's the "Star Wars"/"Star Trek" lounge in our office 🥂 The @denverpost recently highlighted our unique workspace — a former train depot & foundry — and how updating the historic building reflects our purpose & values: https://t.co/lSqROBlG1x

[Astroscale U.S. @Astroscale_US]

How can in-space servicing, assembly, and manufacturing (ISAM) support American national security space strategies, and how could smaller companies play a leading role developing this emerging mission area?

🌎 Happy Earth Day!

As we celebrate #EarthDay, let’s remember our planet’s orbits are a finite, shared resource that must be protected. From weather satellites to GPS, the space infrastructure we rely on every day depends on secure, accessible orbits.

At Astroscale, we’re committed to protecting Earth’s environment through responsible operations and innovations in on-orbit servicing because safeguarding Earth means preserving all the spaces we depend on: land, sea, sky, and orbit.

[Astroscale U.S. @Astroscale_US]

We recently had the pleasure of hosting two groups of aerospace students from @CUEngineering and @coschoolofmines at our Denver office for a Q&A session with engineers, and a final design review of active debris removal prototype projects. We’re always excited to help mentor the next generation of aerospace innovators!

Astroscale’s $61M refueling mission isn’t a demo — it’s happening.

In this Space Café “33 minutes with Ron Lopez”, live from @Astroscale_US after the 40th #SpaceSymposium, @TKriening talks GEO refueling, orbital logistics, and what it means to “deliver sustainability as a service.”

From the $61M APS-R mission to military partnerships and Astroscale’s global footprint — Ron Lopez maps out what’s next.

We had a fantastic time at #SpaceSymposium last week! Here are a few highlights:

🛰 We announced the APS-R award, a groundbreaking Astroscale U.S. mission that will mark the first time two U.S. Department of Defense assets will be refueled on orbit. Learn more: https://t.co/u1VdNqQDGS

👩‍🎓 Astroscale U.S. Director of Policy Tahara Dawkins & Sr. Director of Engineering Jeff Schloemer mentored future aerospace leaders in career development, policy development & speed networking sessions with future aerospace innovators at the @SGAC Fusion Forum.

🤝 Astroscale U.S. President @RonTheSpaceGuy was a featured panelist highlighting the growth of Japanese aerospace companies in the U.S. & provided insights on how to navigate the complexities of entering the American market.

It was an inspiring, invigorating week, and we’re looking forward to doing it again next year!

[Astroscale U.S. @Astroscale_US]

BIG NEWS: We’re leading a refueling mission for a @SpaceForceDoD satellite on orbit with our APS-R spacecraft!

The servicer will open a greater level of agility and flexibility for the United States Space Force.

This mission will mark the first time a U.S. Space Force asset will be refueled on orbit, and the first mission to conduct hydrazine refueling operations above geostationary orbit (GEO).
