From the systems we rely on in orbit to the places we will one day call home.
Asteroids. Meteoroids. Dust streams. The natural environment reaches every orbit, every outpost, every mission.
Oroff connects intelligence, observation, and intervention to help protect humanity wherever it extends.
It starts with understanding ↓Developing meteoroid intelligence for the spacecraft and services we depend on. Starting in low Earth orbit.
Request access ↗Space is not empty. Natural meteoroids cross the orbits of the satellites, stations, and infrastructure we depend on. At high relative speeds, even small particles can damage exposed spacecraft surfaces and components.
Understanding this threat begins with the environment: the particles’ masses, speeds, and directions—and the uncertainty in what we know.
The environment is only part of the story. A spacecraft’s trajectory and orientation shape what it encounters.
We are developing ways to translate a changing meteoroid environment into mission-specific exposure—across an orbit and over time.
Exposure estimates should help mission teams ask better questions—with uncertainty kept in view.
Our next steps are model validation and learning from spacecraft designers, mission assurance teams, and operators about the decisions this intelligence needs to support.
