Rideshare-Enabled Smallsat Payload Hosting
Standardised bus-and-rideshare slots let newcomers and new nations fly experimental payloads such as edge-AI processors and reconfigurable antennas to orbit quickly and affordably.
Developed mainly in: United Arab Emirates, India and NorwayImpacting: Rest of Asia, North America and Europe
TakeMe2Space, a Hyderabad startup, will fly MOI-1A on SpaceX's Transporter-18 rideshare on October 1, 2026. The sub-50 kg 6U CubeSat carries Nvidia Orin NX modules rated at 117 TOPS, 2 TB storage, a nine-band multispectral imager, and a roughly 150 W power budget. Customers upload AI models and receive processed results rather than raw imagery. 23 customers are signed.
