Onboard AI spacecraft operator that lives on the flight computer, decides mission actions autonomously, and flies vehicles independently between ground passes.
Orca Aerospace builds an AI operator that runs on the spacecraft's flight computer, enabling autonomous mission execution without waiting for ground contact. The AI decides what action to take next, a deterministic planner converts goals into maneuvers, and hardware-level guardrails approve or deny every command before it reaches the vehicle. This architecture lets satellite constellations scale without proportionally growing ground operations teams. The system is designed to keep missions moving during pass gaps and when ground operations go offline. Orca Aerospace is a product of Orca Aerospace.
