Products & Solutions

Orbit Guard
Orbit Guard
A fleet of commercial SmallSats operating in geostationary orbit, designed for in-situ space situational awareness and active inspection of GEO assets. Orbit Guard #1 is already in orbit and is the first commercial SmallSat operating at GEO altitude. The spacecraft use Infinite Orbits' Rendezvous technology to conduct close-up inspections and autonomous maneuvers around customer satellites.
Endurance
Endurance
A life-extension servicer for geostationary satellites. Endurance docks with a customer satellite that is running low on fuel and provides propulsion to extend its operational life, allowing operators to delay costly replacement missions. The vehicle is compatible with more than 70% of GEO assets currently in orbit, with its first mission planned from 2027.
GEORyder
GEORyder
A green reusable kickstage vehicle derived from the Endurance programme. GEORyder is designed to transfer small satellites from geostationary transfer orbit (GTO) to geostationary orbit (GEO), offering a cost-effective last-mile delivery option for satellite operators targeting GEO slots.
Rendezvous Solution
Rendezvous Solution
The patented autonomous navigation software that underpins all Infinite Orbits spacecraft. It integrates far-range, near-range and docking capabilities with embedded AI and vision-based sensors, enabling real-time autonomous decision-making without constant ground intervention. The system uses a self-learning neural network that improves with each mission.

About

Infinite Orbits was founded in 2017 in Toulouse, France, to tackle one of the most pressing problems in the space industry: what to do with satellites that are running out of fuel but are otherwise fully functional. The company designs, owns and operates spacecraft it calls Servicers, which can rendezvous autonomously with satellites in geostationary orbit (GEO) to inspect them, extend their operational lives and help manage their end of life.
