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

Before the part ever touches the machine, it's already been built. This is a 5-axis toolpath, programmed in CAM to map every angle, every pass and every cut. When it's ready, that program goes straight to our DMG MORI. The machine rotates and the tool engages. Then, it executes exactly what you see on screen, with extreme precision. Five axes of motion provide complex geometry in a single setup, with better accuracy. This is precision manufacturing for satellites at our factory in Northern California. 🇺🇸

We're connecting the entire country of Mexico with 2 MicroGEO internet satellites. We traveled there to tell the story of our future end users.

Titanium is one of the hardest materials to machine. It cuts much slower than aluminum, runs hot, and deep bowl-like geometry will snap a tool if chips aren't continuously flushed out with coolant. That strength is what allows thin, complex parts to hold tight tolerances, making it the material of choice for high-performance satellites that have to survive the harshest environment there is. Astranis machines titanium in-house at our factory in Northern California, building world-class hardware on American soil.

Last week, we launched four satellites on a dedicated SpaceX rocket. It was awesome.

We have officially completed initial commissioning for our Block 2 mission — and all four satellites are working as expected. Next up: orbit raise. It's time to go to GEO.

Astranis is an American satellite manufacturer. There aren't many of us left, but we're doing our part to bring manufacturing jobs back to the United States.

America needs more than prototypes — it's time to scale up hardware manufacturing. And that's exactly what we're doing, right here in San Francisco.
