Field notes on VLEO, propulsion, orbital congestion, and the work of opening a new orbital band.

Below the crowd: operating where space cleanses itself

LEO is filling up — debris, manoeuvres, and the Kessler trajectory. VLEO isn't only sharper; it's the orbit that clears itself. The case for flying below the crowd.

How air-breathing propulsion works

Air-breathing electric propulsion turns VLEO's biggest problem — atmospheric drag — into its fuel supply. A conceptual walk through how it keeps a satellite at 200 km.

What is VLEO, and why does it matter?

Very Low Earth Orbit sits between 200 and 350 km — close enough to transform resolution, latency, and signal, if you can stay there. Here's why it's the next frontier.
