\"Zenno<\/p>\n

Zenno Astronautics, a space-flight systems company headquartered in New Zealand has completed the integration of its world-first superconducting magnetic torquer for fuel-free spacecraft attitude control, the Z01, inside D-Orbit\u2019s ION Satellite Carrier in preparation for its first in-orbit validation mission. The orbital transfer vehicle with Z01 integrated is slated for launch via SpaceX\u2019s Falcon 9 in Q4 2023. <\/p>\n

Zenno co-founder and CEO Max Arshavsky<\/strong> says, \u201cWe\u2019re about to witness the beginning of a new era of superconducting technology empowering in-space operations\u2014from satellite agility to radiation shielding, close proximity operations, and beyond. This is a milestone for the Z01 and Zenno as we work to give the space industry what it needs to progress \u2013 a reliable, scalable, and fully electric solution for in-orbit maneuverability. Zenno technology unlocks new design freedoms alongside immediate and yet-to-be-explored benefits for satellite design, mission length, and expansion into space. We\u2019re just getting started.\u201d<\/p>\n

Arshavsky says D-Orbit, a company leader in the space logistics industry, is an ideal partner, with the capability and heritage to prove Zenno\u2019s technology in space for the satellite manufacturing sector to enable a shift to more dynamic satellite operations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be partnered with D-Orbit in the first phase of our product delivery. With Zenno\u2019s payload hosted on D-Orbit\u2019s ION Satellite Carrier, this mission will help accelerate the availability of our fuel-free technology – creating a significant paradigm shift for the New Space market and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n

D-Orbit founder and CEO Luca Rossettini<\/strong> says, \u201cInnovation is at the core of the space industry, and we are proud to have the opportunity to work with Zenno to validate in orbit their disruptive technology on our ION Satellite Carrier. This marks an important step towards redefining satellite operations. This collaboration truly exemplifies our shared commitment to shaping the future of space technology, while accelerating the go-to-market phase for all the innovation in this fast-growing space sector.\u201d<\/p>\n

Built on Zenno\u2019s proprietary superconducting magnet technology, Z01 enables fully autonomous and fuel-free satellite positioning and precision interactions between satellites. Z01 is designed to de-tumble, stabilize, and control the attitude of a spacecraft by aligning it to the Earth\u2019s magnetic field and is a fraction of the size and weight of traditional technology.<\/p>\n
