Overview

NewOrbit Space provides long-term access to very low Earth orbit (VLEO) at about 180–220 km, focusing on geospatial imaging and telecommunications. Its satellites enable high-resolution imagery and faster, more efficient communication by operating closer to Earth. The technology includes an air-breathing propulsion system that improves maneuverability and operational efficiency, while the close-in orbit reduces satellite aperture size, shield requirements, satellite mass, and power needs, cutting both construction and launch costs. It also shortens development time. The company differentiates itself by targeting VLEO to deliver lower-cost, higher-quality data and simpler ground infrastructure, supported by reduced radiation exposure and improved radiometric performance. The goal is to offer cost-effective, high-performance satellite solutions that make advanced imaging and communications more accessible for clients in geospatial and telecom markets.
