Space Utilization & Microgravity Research Services

HelioX Cosmos enables research and commercial activities in orbit for organizations that need the space environment without operating their own satellite. The company’s space utilization services include microgravity biology experiments, spaceflight component verification for hardware qualification, and access to the ISS Kibo module’s heritage and utilization services through its Space BD partnership.

HelioX has completed two missions carrying biological payloads for the Taiwan Research Institute, including viral-like particles sent to orbit for protein growth and vaccine development research (2021) and a second biology mission in November 2022. These missions demonstrated the company’s ability to manage sensitive biological specimens through the full launch campaign and on-orbit operation.

Spaceflight heritage services allow companies to obtain the coveted ‘flight-proven’ status for components by flying them on an ISS-attached experiment or CubeSat mission — useful for satellite subsystem manufacturers, component developers, and material science researchers seeking in-orbit validation prior to a prime mission.
