Shielding Humanity's Future in Space
Aegis Station is a civilian orbital infrastructure platform—modular, shielded, and built for long-duration life and operations in space.
But Aegis is more than a station. It’s a system: tankers, shuttles, rovers, and logistics pipelines connecting the Moon, low Earth orbit, and beyond. Our mission is to deliver the missing link—water and mass transport—from the lunar surface to orbital markets.
Built on proven technologies and engineered for near-term deployment, Aegis Station supports not just habitation—but growth, commerce, and permanence in orbit.
Aegis Station is not a distant vision. It’s a real, buildable platform—and a commercial pathway to sustainable orbital presence.
Aegis Station was originally designed with 0.5g artificial gravity—enough to reduce health risks in orbit while easing structural demands. But as our vision matured and long-term habitation took center stage, we developed a 1g variant using the same core architecture.
The change nearly doubles habitable capacity without doubling cost. It also offers full Earth gravity for crew health, physical performance, and compatibility with terrestrial biological systems. Most supporting systems—shuttles, rovers, tankers—remain unchanged.
A full-scale orbital testbed for artificial gravity—spinning at 350 meters to generate 1g at the floor. Gradient One is designed to validate artificial gravity for real habitation.
Aegis Station is assembled in lunar orbit using modular components and lunar-sourced water for shielding. Construction begins dry, with a phased buildout and activation timeline that enables early operations and long-term scalability.

The Lunar Water Tanker Fleet is the backbone of Aegis Station’s shielding campaign and the cornerstone of a future orbital resource economy. These rugged autonomous vehicles ferry water from the Moon’s surface to low lunar orbit at unprecedented scale—fueling life, shielding against radiation, and laying the groundwork for ISRU-based logistics beyond Earth orbit.
“Bob’s Rover” — A Mobile Stronghold for Lunar Exploration
The Aegis-Class Rover is a rugged, pressurized vehicle designed to support lunar surface missions in polar terrain. Built for prospecting, scouting, and water mining operations, it extends the reach of Aegis Station and serves as a self-contained platform for both crewed and autonomous sorties.
The rover enables:
Its integration with Aegis Station and autonomous support nodes like R.O.N. allows it to operate continuously without crew support — unlocking hard-to-reach terrain and sustaining long-term lunar activity.
The "Short Hopper" – Linking Surface and Station
The Luna–Aegis Shuttle is a compact, reusable lunar ferry that connects Aegis Station in orbit with key surface sites near the lunar south pole. Designed for both crew and cargo, it enables rapid, safe, and direct transfers — including seamless docking with the Aegis-Class Rover.
The shuttle operates as a short-range workhorse, flying round trips from Aegis Station to polar surface sites and back. It supports science, exploration, and logistics through quick turnarounds and modular cargo options.
The Orbital Railroad — Cargo and Crew, Scaled for Tomorrow
The Long-Hauler is a spacefaring freightliner built to bridge Earth and Aegis Station. Designed with no launch constraints, it moves people and cargo like an orbital train: modular, scalable, and grounded in current technology. Its forward crew and passenger cars carry up to 48 people comfortably, while trailing freight modules can haul tanks, habitats, RONs, or regolith processors.
Beyond Aegis Station lies a larger vision—expeditions to the outer solar system, modular deep-space vessels, and the infrastructure to sustain a mobile human presence. This is just the beginning.
“The goal isn’t to imagine a future—it’s to live to see it. Maybe even visit.
Aegis Station isn’t science fiction. It’s something real, something permanent—a world in orbit, built with the technology we have right now.”
