How it works

Three steps, one launch window.

01

Pick a panel

Twenty zones across the chassis, the antenna deck and the solar wing. Most are fixed price by size and visibility — panels 13, 16 and 19 are open to bidding from $100.

02

Upload your logo

Drop in a PNG or SVG. We scale it to the panel, send you a proof at flight-hardware size, and hand it to the print lab.

03

It flies

Your logo is printed with space-qualified ink, cured on the panel, photographed in the cleanroom, and launched to orbit.

What the money buys

One satellite, built and flown for $500,000.

Twenty panels priced by size and visibility add up to exactly the build-and-launch cost: one flagship deck at $180,000, two deck flanks at $35,000, eight chassis panels at $20,000 and nine solar-wing cells at $10,000. When the last panel is claimed, the spacecraft is fully funded.

Ride
Launched on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rideshare mission

Questions

Before you claim.

Is the logo actually visible in space?+

The full intention is to commission a satellite carrying a live-streaming camera pointed at the ad space — either printed panels or a digital screen rendering your artwork in real time. This is an experimental project, so treat every purchase as a purchase within this website while launch capability is being configured. See the terms below.

What artwork do you need?+

A vector SVG or a transparent PNG at 2000 px on the long edge. We convert it to a single-layer print file and send a proof at true panel scale before anything is cured.

When do I pay?+

Claiming holds the panel. The card is charged once the panel layout is approved by the launch integrator, and refunded in full if the mission slot slips past the stated launch window.

Which brands get refused?+

Anything that fails export-control or launch-provider review, plus the obvious categories. If a claim is refused the hold is released immediately.

Can I get a bigger panel later?+

Yes, until the print files lock. Release your panel and claim a larger one, or stack several adjacent cells on the solar wing.

Terms & conditions

The fine print, in plain English.

Experimental project

Orbital Ad Space is an experimental project. The full intention is to commission an EnduroSat satellite, launched on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rideshare mission, carrying a live-streaming camera pointed at the ad space. The ad space itself will either be printed on the spacecraft or shown on a digital screen rendering artwork in real time.

Status of purchases

Until launch capability is fully configured, any ad space purchase should be treated strictly as a purchase within this website. Reserving a panel grants you the advertising placement as sold on this site; it is not a guarantee of a specific launch date, vehicle, or orbital parameter.

Intent to launch

Proceeds are committed to the build-and-launch budget of the spacecraft. If the mission cannot proceed, or the launch slot slips beyond the stated window, all panel purchases are refunded in full.

Artwork and approval

All artwork is subject to export-control and launch-provider review. Refused claims are released and refunded immediately. Final panel layouts are approved by the launch integrator before printing or screen configuration.

No affiliation

Orbital Ad Space is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by SpaceX or EnduroSat. Hardware renders are illustrative.
