We're a team of ex-Apple and Amazon PMs, Facebook Engineers, and leading roles at startups.

Visual computing technology from NVIDIA: inventor of the GPU, which creates interactive graphics on laptops, workstations, mobile devices, notebooks, PCs, and more.

We build robotic arms. Custom-built robotic arms are already in use on the International Space Station and on planetary rovers. Our goal is to provide robotic arms that can be adapted for any space mission— from lunar surface missions to free-flying satellite missions. Robotic arms may be attached to lunar landers and rovers to enable a range of activities, including drilling, prospecting, instrument pointing, mobility, and cargo management. Made In Space Europe also provides robotic arms for orbital and free-flying missions, to support and enable activities such as satellite servicing and refueling, in-space manufacturing, debris capture, payload management, and more.
