About ThinkOrbital
ThinkOrbital's mission is to defend, service and build in space. Our revolutionary space superiority capability, ThinkX, brings long-range X-ray imaging, material characterization and counterspace operations. From space domain awareness to real satellite servicing, to huge infrastructure platforms in space, Think Orbital is leading the way in constructing the future and plans on dominating in the currently $1.7T space economy in less than a decade. ThinkOrbital launched its first spacecraft in May 2024, demonstrating for the first time in human history the ability to autonomously weld in space and completed its second test flight in December 2024. The company won the prestigious NASA Collaborations for Commercial Space Capabilities-2 Award in 2023 along with SpaceX, Northrup Grumman, Sierra Space & others, has won 6 US Space Force Small Business and Innovative Research Contracts (including a recent Tactical Funding Increase (TACFI) for further development of on-orbit X-ray inspection) and has letters of intent and close relationships with industry leaders like Northrup Grumman, Sierra Space, True Anomaly, Impulse Space, Firefly Aerospace and Astroscale. ThinkOrbital is led by Colonel Lee Rosen (US Air Force, Ret), who was VP of Launch, Mission & Customer Operations at SpaceX for 11 years; half the employees are ex-SpaceX. Prior to his tenure at SpaceX, Lee had multiple assignments at the NRO & Space Systems Command as well commanded the US Air Force 45th Space Launch Group & 4th Space Launch Squadron, ensuring mission success for all rocket launches out of Cape Canaveral & Vandenberg Space Force Bases.
