Otter

Otter is the first of its kind: a small and affordable servicing vehicle that can perform satellite life extension and disposal. For satellite life extension, Otter can dock with your satellite and, like a jetpack, use its own fuel to keep your satellite operational in Geostationary orbit. For satellite disposal, Otter reliably and safely disposes defunct satellites that pose a collision risk to other satellites and take up valuable orbital slots. Its technology includes groundbreaking guidance and control software, binocular computer vision for navigation, and a docking device that adheres to virtually any flat surface. These innovative technologies enable autonomous Rendezvous, Proximity Operations, and Docking (RPOD) missions and can work with any flight software stack. While specializing in satellite life extension and disposal, Starfish Space envisions Otter’s technology having far-reaching implications, including in-space inspection, orbital relocation, logistics services, repairs, component upgrades, and in-space assembly and manufacturing.
