Astroscale is dedicated to on-orbit servicing across all orbits, aiming to build a sustainable future for space. The company addresses the growing issue of space debris and the crowded orbital environment by offering solutions for end-of-life satellite management, active debris removal, and life extension services. With innovation at its core, Astroscale seeks to create a sustainable foundation for the burgeoning space economy and enhance the safety of space operations.

Founded in 2013, Astroscale is the global leader in on-orbit servicing, dedicated to the safe and sustainable development of space.

The company delivers a variety of innovative and scalable on-orbit servicing solutions, including life extension, in-situ space situational awareness, end-of-life, and active debris removal. These solutions empower satellite operators to reduce risks, increase returns, and achieve mission success while fostering a sustainable space environment. Astroscale is also defining the economics of on-orbit servicing and collaborating with government and commercial stakeholders to develop norms, regulations, and incentives that promote the sustainable growth of space.

Since its first successful launch in March 2021, Astroscale has proven rendezvous and proximity operations technologies in orbit during the ELSA-d and ADRAS-J missions, establishing the company as a leader in on-orbit servicing.

Astroscale spacecraft have been selected for pioneering missions with JAXA, the U.S. Space Force, the European Space Agency, the UK Space Agency, and Eutelsat OneWeb. As more satellite operators adopt on-orbit servicing to routinely inspect, relocate, remove, and extend the life of spacecraft, the potential of a circular space economy — and a future of no waste in space — is being unlocked.

Headquartered in Japan, Astroscale has a global presence with subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, the United States, France, and Israel.
