NewOrbit is a space technology company engineering very-low Earth orbit (VLEO) satellites that fly at one-third the altitude of conventional satellites. Its flagship satellite, NEO-1, is designed for sustained VLEO operation, enabling higher-resolution Earth imaging, direct-to-device connectivity, and more precise weather forecasting. NewOrbit also develops the AURA electric propulsion system, which powers NEO-1 and makes sustained VLEO flight possible, while ensuring a debris-free, self-cleaning orbit.
