Momentus Awarded NASA Contract for In-Space Power System Demonstration
Powering the Future of Space: Advancing In-Orbit Assembly with Next-Generation Electric Systems
SAN JOSE, Calif., June 30, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)— Momentus Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTS) (“Momentus” or the “Company”), a U.S. commercial space firm specializing in
satellite solutions, transportation, and in-space infrastructure, has been awarded a contract by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The agreement will support the demonstration of a Power Processing Unit (PPU) for Hall
Thrusters based upon CisLunar Industries’ Modular Configurable Electric Power Converter (MCEPC) technologies, designed to advance high Delta V Dynamic Maneuver and in-space assembly (ISAM) operations.
The expansion of space infrastructure demands sustainable and scalable electric power solutions that enhance efficiency while minimizing weight and size.
Efficient power generation exceeding 1 kW is essential for high Delta V Dynamic Maneuvering, sensing, and ISAM applications, necessitating
advancements in conversion technologies.
Under the new contract managed by NASA’s Flight Opportunities program based at the agency’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California,
Momentus will host a payload from CisLunar Industries to conduct in-orbit testing of next-generation PPU technology and power management
systems. This PPU payload will be among several payloads that Momentus will carry aboard its Vigoride 7 Orbital Service Vehicle scheduled for launch no earlier than February 2026 on a SpaceX Transporter mission to Low Earth Orbit. The mission will
validate the technology’s performance, with real-time data transmissions to Momentus mission operations, enabling updates to PPU operating
conditions in support of NASA’s ISAM objectives.
By demonstrating cutting-edge power conversion technologies in orbit, Momentus and CisLunar Industries are taking a crucial step towards enabling scalable
in-space infrastructure. This mission not only advances NASA’s ISAM objectives but also underscores the importance of efficient power management for future dual-use orbital operations and next-generation space operations.

Momentus Wins Contract in Highly Competitive U.S. Space Force SpaceWERX Sustained Space Maneuver Challenge
Mission Demonstrates Low-Cost Multi-Spectral Rendezvous Technology
SAN JOSE, Calif.—June 30, 2025—Momentus Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTS), a U.S. commercial space company offering satellite buses and in-space infrastructure services, today announced it has
signed a $1.86M Direct to Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract with SpaceWERX, the innovation arm of the U.S. Space Force. The award supports the in-space flight demonstration of a novel, low-cost multi-spectral sensor suite
for Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO), scheduled for early 2026.
Under this contract, Momentus will demonstrate an internally developed RPO system equipped with optical, infrared, and lidar sensors. The technology
integrates machine vision algorithms and advanced data fusion used to guide the safe and autonomous approach of a spacecraft to an uncharacterized object in low Earth orbit.
“This contract marks a major milestone in advancing cost-effective, autonomous in-space operations,” said John Rood, Chief Executive Officer of Momentus. “We’re honored to support the U.S. Space Force and Department of the Air Force in developing the advanced capabilities needed to support their
plans for dynamic space operations such as orbital servicing and refueling of satellites, assembly of structures in space, and debris mitigation.”
The flight demonstration will take place aboard SpaceX’s Transporter-16 rideshare mission scheduled for launch no earlier than February 2026, where Momentus
will host the RPO payload on its Vigoride orbital service vehicle. The demonstration will be conducted alongside a group of commercial and
Department of Defense customers.
The project stems from the SpaceWERX Sustained Space Maneuver Challenge launched in 2024, where Momentus’ proposal was selected out of numerous challengers
for a Direct to Phase II award following a competitive evaluation. Contract negotiations were concluded in early June 2025.
About Momentus Inc. Momentus is a U.S. commercial
space company that provides satellite buses and in-space infrastructure services, including in-space transportation, hosted payloads, and orbital delivery solutions for microsatellites and CubeSats.
