About

Lodestar Space develops autonomous AI software for spacecraft. The company's work sits at the intersection of machine learning, robotics, and aerospace engineering, addressing the growing need for active protection of orbital assets.

Its flagship product, Mithril, is a hardware-agnostic autonomy software suite. It is designed to convert any off-the-shelf spacecraft into an intelligent bodyguard satellite, capable of detecting, characterizing, and responding to orbital threats in real-time. The company's stated mission is to secure orbital infrastructure through this autonomous capability.

The company's technology targets the defence and satellite operations sectors, where it aims to provide critical infrastructure protection in an increasingly contested space environment. The team describes itself as growing fast to meet the current operational demands of its domain.
