Technical startup Kurs Orbital received a new tranche of funding in the amount of $4 million. These funds will be used to accelerate the commercialization of satellite servicing technology.
The startup Kurs Orbital was founded in 2021 by former director of the Ukrainian Space Agency Vladimir Usov and is now based in Turin. The company aims to develop new types of human activities in space, providing capabilities for moving satellites and removing space debris. The startup itself has no plans to provide these services, but aims to become a leading provider of the necessary approach and docking technologies. This is planned to be done using the ARCap module, which can be integrated into any spacecraft bus.
Kurs Orbital technology is built on the basis of the Kurs system — a legacy of the Soviet era, which was designed to dock spacecraft to the Mir space station. Unlike other similar developments, the Kurs Orbital module will be able to attach to “non-cooperative” targets or spacecraft that are not pre-equipped with any docking equipment.
The company aims to have the first ARCap module ready to fly into space in the fourth quarter of 2025, although Usov declined to provide any details about the first mission.
