Complete propulsion solution for your spacecraft.
Built around your mission, backed by flight-proven experience, and manufactured with the highest quality in the industry.
Propulsion. Perfected.
We’ve done the engineering, built the hardware, and proven it in space. The result is propulsion that’s easier to buy, integrate, and fly.
You have other things to do. Let us handle the propulsion.
Meet today’s spacecraft
A rotating page where you can see one of the missions currently flying with Orbion’s propulsion and the people behind the build.
“It just worked. Period. That’s probably the best compliment we can give Orbion… and it’s still working.”
The best performance combination allowed by Isaac Newton.
Hall-effect propulsion gives you the ideal balance: the thrust to get to your destination quickly, and the fuel-efficiency to maximize your payload mass. Less propellant, more mission flexibility, and more useful life.
There are plenty of propulsion technologies to explore. Your mission doesn’t have to be the one exploring them.
Designed for the Spacecraft You Already Have.
Our semi-custom modules are designed around the spacecraft you already intend to fly—its available power, mission requirements, and integration realities.
Standard hardware. Configured for your mission. No unnecessary complexity.
Tell us the space you have, the power available for propulsion, and the total impulse you need. We’ll engineer the configuration around your spacecraft and deliver a propulsion system that fits. We’re great at Tetris.
Choose the tank capacity your mission needs. We’ll work through the brackets, mounting, and configuration. Rugged electronics can be integrated internally or externally to fit your spacecraft architecture.
Bolt-on or bolt-in, we engineer the details so spacecraft integration stays straightforward.
The result is propulsion that feels less like another subsystem to engineer around and more like a capability that already belongs on your spacecraft.
The hardest part is deciding where to go.
Built from heritage components.
Core elements of thruster, power processing unit, and propellant management assembly are built the same way, every time, for every customer. Your custom module is built around our flight-proven workhorse.
Standard product. Custom module.
We design custom bracketry, plumbing, harness, and tank to fit your spacecraft and mission requirements.
Be a part of the process, or leave it to us.
You can send us elements of your spacecraft structure and we can integrate the system on your panels, or leave the whole design, build, and procurement to us. The configuration is limited only by your imagination.
Your spacecraft. Your mission. The propulsion you need.
The power you have. The propulsion to match. The integration that works. We make it fit. Propulsion. Perfected.
A Mission Partner, Not Just a Supplier.
We help customers evaluate options, configure systems, integrate hardware, prepare for launch, and support operations on orbit. One team from kickoff to mission success.
