Orbit Fab

Last week, our UK team represented #OrbitFab at the opening of the UK Space and Defence Gateway, a dedicated hub designed to bring together the civil and defence space sectors – all at the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus, a place Orbit Fab UK has proudly called home since 2022. Our team had the honour of briefing His Majesty King Charles III and other government and industry leaders on Orbit Fab's work in satellite refuelling, space sustainability and national security. As the event brought together so much of the UK space community, it reminded us that space remains a global community and our best innovations come from collaborating across borders. #OrbitFab #InSpaceRefuelling #SpaceInfrastructure #UKSpace

As the world comes together for #WorldCup2026 - nations uniting on the pitch, fans sharing passion across borders. We celebrate the power of connection that brings us closer and keeps the momentum alive. Orbit Fab is proud to extend that spirit beyond Earth. Through our Gas Stations in Space™, we’re building the infrastructure that lets spacecraft from around the globe meet, refuel, and continue their journeys together, sustaining international collaboration and humanity’s shared exploration for the long haul. The world gets together to refuel — on the pitch and among the stars. #GasStationsInSpace #InSpaceRefueling #WorldCup2026 #SpaceUnity

Farnborough International Airshow (FIA) is coming up, and a big part of our UK team will be there! Two of our team will be speaking on panels in the Space Theatre, Hall 4: 📅 Mon, 20 July 14:35-15:35 🛰️Shawn Hendricks will be joining "The Next Phase of Space Infrastructure: LEO to Cislunar," panel: Can infrastructure scale from LEO to cislunar, and what unlocks investment, interoperability, and sustained operations? 📅Wed 22 July, 11:15-12:15 Calypso Kulasegram will be joining the "Sustaining Orbit: Safety, Scale & Responsibility," panel: How are operators, regulators, and tech providers managing debris risk and end-of-life compliance? In-orbit refuelling runs through both conversations: extending mission life is what makes cislunar infrastructure investable, and it's also what cuts the pressure to launch replacements and reduces debris. Reach out if you'd like to set up a meeting with any of our team at FIA during the show. #RAFTI #InSpaceRefuelling #FIA2026 #Cislunar #SpaceSustainability #OrbitFab

SpaceNews sat down with our CEO Peter Shaper for an exclusive look at what’s next for Orbit Fab. Great coverage from SpaceNews on Orbit Fab’s leadership transition, funding momentum, and path to full commercial operations. Peter Shaper hits the nail on the head: ＂The team has done the hard work. They have developed the technology… Now we’re moving to real commercialization and building a big business.＂ With our first fully integrated refueling shuttle progressing through test this summer and three demonstration missions on track for 2027, we’re bridging from proven tech to delivering real on-orbit services and unlocking a new space economy, starting with government customers. This is how you build the infrastructure layer of a thriving, sustainable space economy: strong leadership, smart capital, and relentless execution. Excited for what’s ahead. 🚀 #InSpaceRefueling #GasStationsInSpace #InOrbitServicing #NewSpace #OrbitFab #ISAM #SpaceEconomy

‼️ Big news from Orbit Fab. We're entering our next chapter - and we're doing it with new leadership, new capital, and new momentum. Today, we announced: ✅ Peter Shaper joins as CEO, bringing 20+ years of scaling PE-backed companies through high-growth transformations. He'll lead Orbit Fab as we shift from R&D to full commercial execution. ✅ Roger Teague, retired U.S. Air Force General and space systems leader, and Don Rogers, founder of Stride Capital Group, have joined our Board - bringing deep national security and capital financing expertise as we expand our government and commercial footprint. ✅ We've secured more than $25M in interim financing led by Stride, strengthening our balance sheet as we open our Series B financing round. 🚀 And critically, our technology is making moves. Our first fully integrated refueling architecture ships this summer, ahead of a 2027 launch. Orbit Fab is proudly building the infrastructure layer of the space economy. #InSpaceRefueling #GasStationsInSpace #InOrbitServicing #NewSpace #OrbitFab #ISAM

250 years ago, America declared its freedom. Freedom to speak, live, and build. We built roads, rails, and power grids. We defined the generation of aviation and pushed the space era to capabilities once only imagined. As we celebrate those who fueled our first 250 years, OrbitFab is already pushing the boundaries of what's next: RE-fueling the next 250. The space infrastructure layer is just beginning, and success depends on sustainable, commercially viable operations. That starts with refueling. Providing satellites the freedom to maneuver, extend missions, and operate on their terms, not those defined by a launch window. Today we celebrate, tomorrow we're back to work. Happy birthday, USA! #InSpaceRefueling #RAFTI #GasStationsInSpace

On a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier, every crew member wears a color-coded jersey. 🟣 Purple belongs to the fuel handlers, the people who keep every aircraft in the air. They’ve been called “The Grapes” since the 1920s. At Orbit Fab, we wear the same color. Because we’re doing the same job in space. We’re building the gas stations in space that keep satellites operational, maneuverable, and mission-ready, continuing a tradition that started on carrier decks and now extends to geostationary orbit. 🍇 The Grapes would approve. #GasStationsInSpace #RAFTI #InSpaceRefueling #SpaceForce Photo Credit: U.S. Department of War | Navy - The appearance of U.S. Department of War (DoW) visual information does not imply or constitute DoW endorsement.
