Blue Moon Space Operations (BMSO) captures and repurposes orbital debris to protect satellites and enable the next generation of space infrastructure.
BMSO operates in the emerging market of orbital services and in-space infrastructure. As satellite activity accelerates, maintaining safe and sustainable orbits is becoming critical to the global space economy. We capture and repurpose orbital debris, transforming a growing risk into usable assets.
Problem to Solve
Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and neighboring orbital regimes contain thousands of defunct satellites, rocket bodies, and fragmentation debris traveling at extremely high velocities. Even small objects pose significant collision risks to operational spacecraft, crewed missions, and critical infrastructure. Current debris mitigation strategies largely focus on avoidance, passive deorbiting, or end-of-life disposal, rather than active removal or reuse.
Our Approach
BMSO is developing a system of cooperating robotic spacecraft, referred to internally as “space tractors,” that work as a coordinated swarm to locate, capture, stabilize, and transport orbital debris. The system relies heavily on advanced software, autonomy, and multi-agent coordination, supported by modular robotic hardware capable of operating safely and reliably in the harsh orbital environment.
Solutions We Offer
In addition to debris removal and risk mitigation, BMSO’s long-term architecture is designed to enable the recycling and repurposing of captured orbital material. Rather than treating debris as a terminal disposal problem, the concept of operations envisions recovered material being processed into usable feedstock for on-orbit applications and lunar construction.
Potential applications include structural elements, shielding, and material inputs for in-space manufacturing processes. This approach reduces dependence on Earth-launched mass and supports emerging models of sustainable space infrastructure by integrating debris mitigation with resource utilization in cislunar space and on the lunar surface.
Stage
Blue Moon Space Operations LLC (BMSO) is an early-stage, pre-seed aerospace company focused on feasibility.
