Aspect Aerospace is a U.S.-based aerospace and space-technology company founded in 2023 and headquartered in Mobile, Alabama, as a spinoff from the University of South Alabama. The company is built by satellite designers and builders with flight heritage, leveraging technology developed through the JagSat-1 mission. Aspect Aerospace manufactures the Single-Board Satellite (SBS), a fully PCB-mounted satellite designed to eliminate wiring, reduce assembly time, and enable mass production at dramatically lower cost. Their flagship 'constellation in-a-box' concept allows a host spacecraft to deploy 20–100 SBS units from a single launch, enabling affordable, on-demand space weather sensing, earth imaging, and on-orbit mesh networks for U.S. government, defense, and commercial customers including the U.S. Space Force and NASA.
See something off about this company?
Traditional satellites cost hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars each, making large-scale constellations prohibitively expensive. Existing CubeSat designs still require complex wiring harnesses and manual assembly, limiting scalability and rapid deployment.
Aspect Aerospace's Single-Board Satellite places all satellite components on a single printed circuit board, eliminating wiring and harnesses, enabling mass production by circuit board manufacturers, and reducing per-satellite cost to hundreds of dollars. Their 'constellation in-a-box' concept deploys 20–100 satellites from a single host satellite, making large-scale, on-demand sensing and mesh networking accessible at a fraction of traditional costs.
Aspect Aerospace received $1.9M in funding from the U.S. Space Force as of April 2026 and about $1.2M in VC funding as of July 2026. It has flight-proven heritage through the JagSat-1 satellite mission. The company has approximately 10 employees and holds TRL-9 hardware and software solutions.
