STARFISH SPACE INC.

Starfish Space, Inc. specializes in developing autonomous space servicing and maneuvering systems for on-orbit operations, with a focus on robotic spacecraft capable of docking, inspection, and logistics support. Their core technical expertise lies in articulating thruster systems, onboard relative navigation software, and low-cost, high-performance orbital tug platforms such as the OTTER spacecraft. The company designs and integrates hardware and software solutions that enable dynamic space operations, including responsive servicing of defense and civil space assets, proximity operations, and debris inspection missions. Key differentiators include modular, autonomous navigation systems for complex rendezvous and docking scenarios, and propulsion architectures optimized for precision maneuvering in cislunar and low-Earth orbit environments. Starfish Space maintains a strong relationship with the Department of Defense and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, delivering advanced R&D solutions for space mobility, logistics, and on-orbit servicing. For the DoD, they develop technologies to enhance the maneuverability and operational flexibility of military spacecraft, while for NASA, they focus on autonomous systems for proximity operations and orbital inspection—supporting both national security and civil space exploration objectives. The company’s primary industry focus is in research and development within physical and engineering sciences, specifically advancing in-space robotics, spacecraft autonomy, and orbital logistics. Their work positions them at the forefront of the commercial space servicing market, bridging defense and civil space needs through scalable, modular platforms designed for rapid deployment and operational adaptability. Starfish Space, Inc. is a small business headquartered in Tukwila, Washington, with no federal certifications on record. The company operates as a privately held entity focused exclusively on space systems innovation, leveraging its Pacific Northwest engineering ecosystem to serve critical national space infrastructure requirements.
