Nothing happens in orbit until you can see.

That idea started Turion in 2021. Here is our story.

Why we exist: to unleash the full potential of space. Today the space economy is a fraction of Earth’s. We’re working to bring forward the day it sustains itself.

How we get there: first, secure the domain. The capabilities that keep space secure for the U.S. and its allies (multi-vehicle autonomy, space mobility & logistics, rendezvous & zero proximity operations, manufacturing at scale, machine vision & sensing, and fleet & constellation management) are the same ones that will unlock the resources of the solar system. We build them one step at a time.

What we’ve done: when we started, nearly every satellite pointed at Earth. We built ours for non-Earth imaging, pointed at the satellites around them. We self-funded our first spacecraft and flew it, then flew another. Two for two. More than 40,000 images from orbit. And we became the first licensed U.S. commercial provider of resolved imagery of objects in space.

What we build: spacecraft, sensors, mission software, and operations, engineered as one system.

Who we are: hardcore engineers, meritocratic decision-makers, mission and outcome oriented. Our rule is simple: fly, then be believed.

Where is your satellite pointing?

For GPS operators, keeping antennas locked on Earth while chasing the Sun is a constant balancing act. Since the two axes are perpendicular, meeting both constraints perfectly is geometrically impossible.

Thanks to TMPL's two-vector pointing, solving this is simple. Just choose your primary and secondary targets, and TMPL handles the heavy math—calculating the full quaternion and body angular rate profile automatically.

See it in action below as the satellite yaws to track the Sun.

Turion Space's Chief Scientist, Dr. Thomas Cooley, joined industry leaders at A5X 2026 in Singapore for a fireside chat on resilient orbital infrastructure, ground connectivity, and on-orbit awareness.

Thank you to A5X for bringing together leaders shaping the future of space.

[TURION @TurionSpace]

You can't protect what you can't see.

As orbits grow more congested, ground-based tracking isn't enough. Operators need real-time, on-orbit eyes to truly understand the domain.

@HooverInst dives into the realities of crowded orbits. Here is how Turion's DROID fleet is answering the call today with high-resolution Space Domain Awareness and Non-Earth Imaging.

[Hoover Institution @HooverInst]

Thousands of satellites crowd Earth's low orbit, risking cascading debris, crippled global services, and even geopolitical tensions.

Hoover Science Fellow Simone D'Amico says the time is now for America to lead the way and turn that crowded and chaotic orbit into something manageable through the deployment of coordinated, autonomous swarm satellites.

TMPL provides users with powerful tools to solve many astrodynamics problems. The TMPL numerical integration library includes several methods designed to accommodate different accuracy, efficiency, and computational requirements:

- Dormand-Prince (DP) 8(7)-13
- Dormand-Prince (DP) 6(5)-8
- Dormand-Prince (DP) 5(4)-5
- Runge-Kutta-Verner (RKV) 9(8)-16
- Runge-Kutta-Nystrom (RKN) 12(10)-17
- Classic Runge-Kutta (RK4)

With more to come!

Why do we offer multiple numerical integration methods? No single integration method is optimal for every application. Different methods offer distinct trade-offs between numerical accuracy, computational cost, and efficiency. TMPL allows users to select the integration method that best meets their mission requirements, providing greater control over propagation accuracy and performance. For applications where manual integrator selection is unnecessary, TMPL also provides a default integrator that balances accuracy and computational efficiency.

Beyond orbit propagation, every numerical integrator in TMPL supports event location, enabling a powerful tool that allows users to identify specific conditions along a trajectory with high precision. Rather than relying solely on discrete propagation outputs, event location determines when a specified condition is satisfied, and retrieves the corresponding time and state. For example, users can propagate to an eclipse, plane crossings, point of closest approach, specific orbital elements, or even a set of user-defined criteria. This capability is useful for precise mission analysis and planning when exact timing and state information is critical for mission success.

TMPL supports the following event types for location:

- True Anomaly*
- Apogee*
- Perigee*
- Argument of Latitude*
- Maximum Latitude*
- Minimum Latitude*
- ECI Plane Crossing (e.g. equatorial plane crossing is defined as z=0)
- Ascending Node*
- Descending Node*
- Eclipse
- Point of Closest Approach
- User-Defined Callback (user provides an arbitrary smooth and continuous root function that defines the event)

The event types denoted with the asterisk (*) are shown in the example image below.

Our advisor, Lt. Gen. DeAnna Burt (USSF, Ret.), highlights in her latest @CSIS commentary the critical need for a robust industrial base to secure U.S. space superiority. At Turion, we're building the essential toolkit for that mission: on-orbit mobility, space domain awareness, and threat deterrence. We're proud to be an indispensable partner in maintaining the high ground.

[CSIS @CSIS]

Space superiority is not about seeking conflict in orbit, but about deterring it, convincing adversaries that they cannot deny the United States the advantages of space or exploit their own space capabilities against U.S. forces without consequence, write DeAnna Marie Burt and Kari Bingen.

TMPL is expanding beyond Earth orbit.

Released on October 9, 2026, TMPL v12.0 introduces a major new module for cislunar mission design.

Mission engineers can use TMPL's new Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem (CR3BP) capabilities to model complex trajectories in the Earth-Moon system, compute halo and Lyapunov orbits, analyze orbital stability, and identify low-energy transfer paths.

From mission planning around Lagrange points to designing trajectories beyond GEO, TMPL provides the tools to navigate increasingly complex orbital environments.

NASA started their operations on October 1, 1958.

68 years later, its mission of science, discovery, and exploration remains essential to American leadership in space.

A strong NASA and a strong commercial space industry reinforce one another. Together, they can push the frontier further and faster.

Orbital compute alone is a losing game near-term unless you have Starship. 10MW of solar + storage on the ground, no racks, buying every subsystem: ~$50M. Stick it in the desert, add Starlink, skip interconnect, EZ. To beat that from space you need 100 × 100kW sats for under $50M all-in. If you aren’t SpaceX, launch alone doesn’t close (yet).

Bullish long-term on Elon’s 99.99% thesis, but near term this creates an incentive that is likely to accelerate market consolidation from LV to end service. If you already fly a profitable, power-hungry constellation, adding compute, power, and radiators starts to work. Dedicated compute sats are the only ones that show up at hyperscaler scale. Everything else is ad-hoc.

Survival through the consolidation wave is winning, and the winners will be massive. @TurionSpace is in it to win it. 🫡

Should be an exciting next 5–10 years.
