Live Orbit

Human presence needs an Earth-centered view.

Orbit context first

The first screen should orient every dataset around Earth: stations, orbit bands, company dependencies, and return paths all become easier to understand when the planet stays visible.

    Commercial LEO Transition

    The ISS handoff is the timeline that makes the market legible.

    1. ISS research base

      Microgravity research and advanced manufacturing demonstrations remain the baseline.

    2. Commercial station development

      New platforms compete to provide research, manufacturing, and habitation services.

    3. Post-ISS continuity

      The product story centers on maintaining LEO access while commercial capacity grows.

    Microgravity Advantage

    Manufacturing changes when gravity-driven effects fade.

    01

    Less convection

    More stable processing environments can support crystallization and material uniformity.

    02

    Less sedimentation

    Particles and cells do not settle the same way, changing biology and materials workflows.

    03

    Containerless potential

    Reduced contact with vessels can matter for glass, fibers, and advanced materials.
