Space Infrastructure Development

A permanent and scalable human and robotic presence in space depends on robust infrastructure — in Earth orbit, on the lunar surface, in cislunar space, and eventually on Mars. From communications and power systems to in-space servicing and orbital data centers, building this infrastructure is a defining challenge and opportunity of the coming decades.

ASCEND explores the design, development, and deployment of infrastructure enabling sustained operations in space, including:

• Communications
• Imaging and remote sensing services
• In-space risk mitigation (debris, congestion, solar events)
• Lunar and Mars infrastructure development
• Navigation
• Orbital data centers
• Space architecture, stations, and habitats
• Space logistics, refueling, and ISAM
• Space power infrastructure
• Space resources utilization
• And much more
