Events

• 2026-02-10 - Demonstration - Spaceium validates refueling actuator precision in orbit - The actuator achieved a reported 0.003-degree rotational accuracy in orbit. Spaceium said that precision would produce less than one millimetre of movement at the end of a full-length robotic arm. The actuator is the precision driver for a planned autonomous… - source: spaceium.com
• 2025-12-01 - Demonstration - Spaceium launches orbital refueling actuator on Transporter-15 - The Nicolò payload carried a precision robotic actuator intended for autonomous propellant transfer in orbit. D-Orbit hosted the payload aboard an ION spacecraft launched on SpaceX's Transporter-15 mission. The launch gave Spaceium's refueling hardware… - source: spaceium.com
• 2025-01-22 - Funding - Spaceium closes $6.3M seed round led by Initialized Capital - Initialized Capital led the oversubscribed $6.3 million seed round. Spaceium was developing long-duration propellant storage and automated fuel-transfer infrastructure for spacecraft. The company planned to use the financing to advance a product-capability… - source: techcrunch.com
• 2024-01-15 - Partnership - Spaceium and Space Machines plan cryogenic-refueling mission - Spaceium planned to demonstrate cryogenic fuel storage aboard the Space Machines Company platform. After the storage test, Spaceium planned to transfer the stored cryogenic fuel into a Space Machines spacecraft tank. The companies described the mission as a… - source: spaceium.com
• 2023-10-12 - Partnership - Spaceium and Aphelia plan orbital wireless-charging demonstration - Aphelia planned to place a wireless-charging payload on a Spaceium mission. Spaceium would host the payload on its modular orbital-service-station architecture. The demonstration targeted a shared infrastructure problem: extending spacecraft operations… - source: payloadspace.com
• 2023-09-13 - Partnership - Spaceium and The Exploration Company sign in-space servicing LOI - The planned demonstration paired Spaceium's cryogenic refueling architecture with The Exploration Company's Nyx spacecraft. The station was to carry cryogenic biomethane and oxygen for the refueling demonstration. The companies also agreed to use Nyx as the… - source: payloadspace.com
