In space, temperature extremes pose significant challenges for spacecraft. MLI ensures our avionics, propulsion systems, & other onboard components stay within their acceptable thermal ranges throughout the mission lifetime. We’re now focusing on final system checkouts before shipping to launch site

Announcing a new mission with Astranis planned for 2027, where Helios will deliver multiple MicroGEO satellites to GEO in under 24 hours. 

No heavy-class rocket required. No multi-month climb. Just efficient, reliable delivery.

Heat. Pressure. Precision.

In the Impulse Weld Shop, raw material becomes mission hardware. Joints become thrust structures. Steel becomes spacecraft.

This is how in-space mobility is built—one weld at a time.

By hand. By people. For orbit.

The Mira flying on our LEO Express 3 mission is undergoing exhaustive functional testing to validate each of its subsystems ahead of launch, including:

⚙️ Vacuum 
⚙️ Vibration 
⚙️ Light to battery end-to-end

Impulse Space’s Geosynchronous Update, $300M Series C Round & IPO Prospects with Impulse Space CEO Tom Mueller 8/7/25 Podcast Episode · Manifest Space with Morgan Brennan · 08/07/2025 · 15m

Our CEO @lrocket.bsky.social joined MorganLBrennan on CNBC’s Manifest Space to talk in-space mobility, Mira, and what’s next for Impulse.

Responsive mobility is here.

🎧 Listen in:

NASA has selected @gotoimpulse.bsky.social Space to provide OTV service studies that explore lower-cost ways to reach hard-to-access destinations in space. The studies will look at how Mira and Helios can enable in-space mobility.

The first mission, currently planned for 2027, will feature a dedicated deployment from a medium-lift launcher in LEO, followed by Helios transferring the 4-ton-class payload directly to GEO within eight hours of launch.

The agreement provides opportunity for additional missions.

We're pleased to announce our multi-launch agreement with SESSatellites, a global content and connectivity provider, to use our Helios kick stage to transport SES's satellites from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) directly to high-energy orbits in hours.

This tank is ready for test. 🔥

Helios development keeps moving forward — each step bringing us closer to high delta-v missions and redefining what’s possible in space logistics.

Getting to space is no longer the hard part. Moving once you're there? That’s the next frontier.

Impulse is building the future of a thriving space economy—with fast, flexible, and cost-effective in-space mobility.

Common dome and LOX dome of Helios: sleeved. ✅

Another milestone toward a fully assembled development tank. Built to carry over 13,000 kg of propellant, Helios is engineered for direct insertion to MEO, GEO, and beyond.

🚀 During launch, forces from acceleration put serious stress on COPVs. To ensure reliability, we run "external loads" testing by pressurizing the tank & applying static loads of over 10,000 pounds with a hydraulic actuator—validating the article can handle well beyond the harshest flight conditions.

Our friction stir welder is putting in work to fuse the barrel section of Helios, Impulse's high-energy kick stage.

It's Saiph to say we know thrusters. 🔥

Last week, Impulse CEO @lrocket.bsky.social sat down with science journalist Sarah Cruddas at SATELLITE 2025 to discuss the future of in-space transportation.

Thank you to SATELLITE 2025 for the platform and to everyone who joined the discussion.

Meet Maurice Rojas, CNC Programmer at Impulse Space. From programming and setting up CNC machines to optimizing performance and enhancing shop floor efficiency, Maurice plays a critical role in shaping the future of in-space transportation. 🚀
