About Us
Viridian Space develops air-breathing electric propulsion that lets satellites collect air in very low Earth orbit and use it as fuel. This cuts reliance on stored propellant, keeps spacecraft in lower orbits for longer, and supports better imaging and broadband coverage. The technology is built for reusable satellite platforms, in-orbit servicing, and active space-debris removal missions.
