Overview: CisLunar Industries, a space technology startup, is creating an industrial scale, space-based metal refining and production capability in cislunar space. By redefining space debris and treating it as the optimal near-term resource for in-space metal production, the company will open the market for space-sourced structural materials. To achieve this vision, the company is developing a group of orbital platforms called Space Foundries that will recycle space debris and non-functioning spacecraft to produce refined metal and salvaged components, massively impacting two areas: (1) By making space debris valuable, active debris removal becomes a potentially profitable activity, and space debris remediation/mitigation becomes economically self-sustainable. (2) The adoption of in-space manufacturing will be accelerated by creating a cost-effective, steady supply of refined metal, well before the commercial availability of lunar or asteroid sourced materials. Although space debris is a significant potential resource, it is only the jumping off point in the company’s long-term vision.
