AxelLiner

Axelspace's one-stop service that designs, builds and operates microsatellites for other companies and agencies, plus AxelLiner Laboratory for testing hardware in orbit.

Why it matters

Selling satellite missions as a service lets customers fly a sensor or test hardware without building a satellite team, and gives Axelspace revenue beyond imagery.

How the technology works

Customers bring a payload or mission and Axelspace supplies the microsatellite, development and operations. In June 2026 it signed a roughly four-year agreement with JAXA to use AxelLiner Laboratory for in-orbit tests of electric propulsion research.
