Our take
Exotrail is an end-to-end space mobility operator enabling small satellites to move in space. This helps optimise deployment, increase performance and reduce space pollution. Ultimately, because of this, a new world of telecommunication, Earth observation and space exploration will arise.
In 2024, the company became an official space service provider and completed its first "last-mile" delivery in space with its spacevan orbital transfer vehicle. Alongside this key accomplishment, Extorail has formed strategic partnerships to expand its reach, including a collaboration with Isar Aerospace to launch multiple spacevan missions aboard Isar's Spectrum Rocket.
The company is scaling up its known products whilst introducing and growing new ones, and has partnered with Astroscale France in hopes to test deorbiting capabilities in low Earth orbit. With this, the company leads the way in space logistics, driving a more sustainable and efficient space environment while opening new possibilities for satellite-based services.
