Odin collision insurance

Why it matters

Small operators often fly uninsured because standard policies are costly. A collision-only policy backed by measured impact data gives them a cheaper way to cover a real risk.

How the technology works

Odin's onboard Black Boxes record when and where debris hits a spacecraft, and that impact data supports claims and pricing. Odin says the cover is underwritten through Lloyd's of London and costs far less than traditional in-orbit insurance.

Arkisys offers it to customers flying on its Cutter spacecraft.
