Lunar Outpost

Lunar Outpost is a pioneer in commercial space robotics, planetary mobility, and space resources. Founded in 2017, the company aims to facilitate extended human presence in space by harnessing extraterrestrial resources to benefit life on Earth. With a range of cutting-edge rovers, including the Mobile Autonomous Prospecting Platform (MAPP) and the Lunar Terrain Vehicle (LTV), Lunar Outpost is poised to revolutionize the New Space economy. The company leads the Lunar Dawn team, a consortium comprising General Motors, Goodyear, and MDA Space, which is pivotal in providing mobility for Artemis astronauts as part of the broader Artemis campaign for sustainable lunar presence. Having secured a Series A investment on 13 November 2024 from Type One Ventures, Promus Ventures, Industrious Ventures, and Beyond Earth Technologies, Lunar Outpost is well-positioned to make history with its upcoming lunar surface missions. The company's first rover is set to be the premier commercial rover on the Moon and the first of its kind to explore the lunar South Pole, marking a significant milestone in space exploration. As the company progresses with its subsequent missions, it is geared towards developing mobility and robotic systems that can operate reliably in the most extreme environments of the solar system. With notable commercialization and promising partnerships, Lunar Outpost is poised to create substantial value in the burgeoning New Space economy.
