Spaceium and Aphelia plan orbital wireless-charging demonstration
Spaceium and Aphelia announced an agreement to demonstrate wireless spacecraft charging aboard a future Spaceium orbital mission.
Evidence notes
- Aphelia planned to place a wireless-charging payload on a Spaceium mission.
- Spaceium would host the payload on its modular orbital-service-station architecture.
- The demonstration targeted a shared infrastructure problem: extending spacecraft operations beyond onboard power limits.
Company context
Spaceium builds automated infrastructure for in-space refueling and repair. Its planned service stations store propellant and use a modular robotic arm to grapple customer spacecraft, align transfer connections and exchange tools or hardware.
