Orbital Matter: The Space Construction Company aims to change the way space infrastructure is built thanks to their proprietary low heat 3D printing process designed to work directly in exposed space which will simplify and miniaturize rocket payloads while maximizing the size of the deployed satellites and structures in orbit. The company has been selected by ESA to demonstrate its technology in space onboard the Ariane 6 maiden flight. Their first satellite, Replicator 1, was developed, qualified for launch and integrated with the rocket in just 4 months. Orbital Matter is using an iterative R&D approach to quickly progress their product development while also cooperating closely with prime contractors such as Thales Alenia Space, OHB and Axiom Space on developing their technology for building large antennas, space stations and space based solar power.
