Description

Infinite Orbits (IO) is building two types of in-orbit servicers - namely OrbitGuard (OG) and Endurance. Both are developed to serve customers in GEO orbit. OG-1 was launched in May 2023 and shall demonstrate in-situ SSA capabilities and ability to maneuver around the GEO orbit as and when required to track various RSO's. Endurance shall have the capability to dock with a target satellite and extend the operational life of out of fuel GEO telecom satellites. Endurance-1 is slated for launch in Q1 2026. The presentation will go over the unique aspects of these missions and describe the new-space approach in making in-orbit services affordable and faster to deploy.
