Solstar Space Co.

Wifi Access points built specifically to operate in the extreme conditions of space currently does not exist. NASA and commercial space companies building space stations and bases on the moon have a requirement for the WiFi that Solstar is developing. Just like on Earth, we need network equipment in space. Unfortunately, today WiFi in space isn’t easy and is practically non-existent. This is a missing piece in space-based communications that Solstar is fulfilling.

Solstar has flown its technology three times in space successfully, including the first commercial WiFi hotspot inside a spacecraft, and first commercial tweet from space. We flew twice on Blue Origin's New Shepard's spacecraft and demonstrated a commercial satellite link to the spacecraft from launch to landing. We have key customers in the three main market segments including Northrop Grumman, NASA, and Space Force/Air Force. We are currently working on providing WiFi on the Lunar Gateway Space Station and are developing WiFi capabilities for lunar surface operations.
