Astranis Space Technologies

We build the world's most advanced satellites for high orbits.

[Astranis Space Technologies @Astranis]

It’s time for scale: Astranis adds $450 million in new capital to meet surging demand for advanced high-orbit spacecraft.

Dedicated communications infrastructure is no longer optional. Demand is spiking from countries and governments that are moving away from aging, shared GEO communications satellites. They require dedicated satellites and networks they control, which is something that can only be provided from GEO.

This capital enhances our ability to meet demand from our commercial customer base around the world, and importantly we are now spooling up to support multiple US Government programs of record simultaneously.

We’ve now been selected as Prime for the initial phase of 3 separate Programs of Record— PTS-G, Resilient GPS, and RG-XX/Andromeda.

And we’re just getting started. More in the comments.

Astranis Vanguard is built for the environments where connectivity can't fail.

Vanguard is a dedicated satellite network for warfighters and first responders that is rapidly deployable, fully air-gapped, and already proven on orbit.

.@GoToImpulse COO and President @_Eric_Romo says @Astranis is leading a major shift in GEO—from massive billion-dollar satellites to smaller more agile spacecraft:

"It used to be that in GEO, you had these monolithic mega spacecraft, four tons and up."

"The trend you saw in LEO, where spacecraft used to be really expensive and then folks like @Planet Labs, and eventually Starlink really iterated on taking commercial components and making spacecraft smaller and kind of the shoebox satellite type thing."

"That never happened in Geo until now."

SOLD OUT.

Thank you to everyone who reserved a spot on our satellite. Your names will soon become a permanent part of a spacecraft heading to orbit.
We're now beginning the laser engraving process and will send you a close-up photo of your name on the flight panel once it's complete.

See you in space. 🛰️

The defense innovation ecosystem is at an inflection point. The question is no longer whether commercial technology belongs in national security: it's whether the system can adopt it fast enough.

We're honored to be named a Four-Peater as one of the companies to appear on all four consecutive NatSec100 reports!

SVDG & @JPMorgan’s 2026 NatSec100 report is now live! A thread (1/13)

This year’s report reflects a defense ecosystem that’s matured from early experimentation to real-world adoption.

SVDG believes that too much of the signal still comes from proxies like fundraising, valuation, branding, media attention, etc. While those indicators, in many ways, have helped catalyze the ecosystem, they’re incomplete in a market where adoption can now be observed with greater fidelity.

Defense is uniquely difficult to evaluate – sales cycles are long and uneven & there’s no clean equivalent of ARR like most venture categories. There is no silver bullet for evaluating the operational impact of national security companies, and we do not pretend this report solves that challenge. But when outcomes in this sector shape national security, human life, and the preservation of democratic values, improving the signal set is extremely important.

For the first time (in partnership with @Pryzm_Dynamics), this year’s NatSec100 incorporates gov contracting data alongside traditional indicators. We also raised the bar for inclusion: eligible companies must have secured at least one US government contract as of December 31, 2025.

The goal is not to discount capital or narrative, but to move toward a more rigorous understanding of which companies are actually on a viable path to deployment.

Today we honor the commitment and ultimate sacrifice of our military service members.

We remember. 🇺🇸

Sending your work to space is an unreal feeling.

Now we’re opening that mission up to everyone. Your name could be laser engraved on our next satellite. https://t.co/tpLeRiGxH0

The Astranis High Orbit Band made its debut at the 6th Annual Space Force Ball.

What could be a better way to celebrate the high ground than with bagpipes, guitars, astronauts and cowboys?

When we machine aluminum, what's left has to be light, thin, and perfectly flat.

As material is removed, stress releases and thin walls want to move. We prevented that with a careful machining strategy across our DMG MORI DMC 75 and Haas VF2, and a custom fixture designed with negative geometry to hold the thin walls securely.

The tools, the toolpaths, and the sequencing all work together so the part came out flat, accurate, and ready for inspection. Every critical dimension is then verified on our Zeiss CMM before the part moves any further.

This is precision manufacturing for satellites at our factory in Northern California. 🇺🇸
