Powering the Moon
Overcoming the Darkness.
ORiS delivers energy by laser from point to point across the lunar surface even where the Sun never reaches.
Our solution to the problem
The Most Valuable Sites Are the Darkest
Lunar night lasts over two Earth weeks, and lava tubes and permanently shadowed regions sit in perpetual darkness below −170 °C. Solar power can't reach them, leaving these priority sites off-limits.
Continuous Energy, Even Through the Night
ORiS beams laser power from point to point across the lunar surface, so rovers, landers and habitats keep operating through the 14-day night, with no need to return to a charging station.
Lunar Power Link
Precision Beaming from Orbit
We transmit laser energy with sub-meter accuracy over distances up to kilometers, and we hold that precision even on assets in motion, not just fixed targets.
Adjustable Beam Divergence
Beam divergence adjusts dynamically to keep power density consistent across varying distances.
Continuous Exploration
Powered on the spot, rovers and systems keep exploring lava tubes and shadowed regions continuously, with no need to return to a charging station.
Recharging Station
Two ways to receive power: mount a lightweight converter directly on your asset, or beam energy to a single ground recharging station where multiple rovers and systems come to recharge.
