Orbital Paradigm

At the #IAC in Milan, Orbital Paradigm and IDDK Co., Ltd. signed an agreement to reserve a payload slot for IDDK on OP's "Learn To Fly" mission in 2026. This mission is designed to carry payloads into orbit for and return them safely to Earth, supporting innovative microgravity experimentation and production applications. IDDK Co., Ltd. is one of the leading companies in developing microgravity payloads for biotech applications, and we're grateful for their trust. More than 50% of the Learn To Fly payload capacity is already pre-booked!

We'll be flying Deimos #GNSS receiver in our Learn To Fly mission, scheduled for 2026! It will be our second mission, the first designed to be recovered after #reentry from space. We'll be testing the receiver in orbital and #hypersonic flight conditions. Further cooperation will be possible after this first flight for OP to integrate Deimos #GNSS in our vehicles navigation suite. Thanks to Deimos for trusting us!

We've been awarded our first European Space Agency - ESA project with our friends at SPHERICAL! Our ASTRA proposal was selected for InSPoC3 activity on advanced autonomy for space transportation systems. This comes right at our first company birthday, and is perfectly aligned with our SW-centric approach to space return👍 Congrats to our Víctor for coordinating the successful proposal!

We're very happy to share that we'll be integrating Pangea Aerospace UNyx propulsion system in our reentry vehicles, starting with the first controlled reentry flight of our vehicle Kestrel, currently scheduled for 2026. Pangea is a leading propulsion company, with systems spanning from in-space thrusters to large rocket engines, all the way up to their unbelievable aerospike. They are an example we look up to among European space startups, and for us it's really a honor to partner up with them. Propulsion is a key element for our reentry system: we aim at using advanced onboard autonomy to ensure low-acceleration entry and high pinpoint arrival. A reliable, precise and efficient propulsion system is what enables the accurate maneuvering we need. We have a lot of work ahead of us, but doing it with partners of such a high calibre is really a privilege!

Hi all! Orbital Paradigm has been accepted in the next Creative Destruction Lab cohort, as part of the Space stream. It's a selective and intense program: we're happy for being part of it and very much looking forward to starting! #BuildSomethingMassive.

We're proud to share the news of our collaboration with SOLAR MEMS, a premium provider of reliable and accurate star trackers and solar sensors for spacecraft manufacturers. We'll be integrating the SOLAR MEMS nanoST as part of the sensor suite of our highly autonomous SW-centric reentry capsule, named Kestrel. The nanoST will ensure accurate navigation while in orbit, and will be key in the avionic architecture of Kestrel. We'll fly SOLAR MEMS nanoST starting with our first Kestrel reentry vehicle mission, with the goal of bringing it back to Earth safe and sound to analyze it after flight. Thanks SOLAR MEMS for trusting us as a partner, and looking forward to going to space (and back) together!

Thanks for having us at Itnig - Startup Ecosystem!
