Real-time, actionable, sovereign
Optical Space Intelligence
Spaceflux is a UK-based, European optical Space Domain Awareness company. From LEO to GEO, our technology reveals what is happening in space, when it matters most.
We deliver real-time, taskable space intelligence to help governments and operators respond faster and act with certainty in orbit. Our proprietary sensor network and Cortex platform provide continuous, high-precision tracking day and night.
-
Optical orbital tracking, even in daylight
Our proprietary global network of optical telescopes covers all orbits from LEO to GEO and Cislunar. Short-wave Infrared (SWIR) technology enables continuous surveillance, day and night.
-
Data delivered in a minute
Our global network of telescopes can locate and image objects rapidly. Our Cortex platform typically delivers your data to you in one minute.
-
Cutting edge AI built on powerful hardware
Our system delivers unparalleled sensitivity to detect, characterise, and predict movements of faint objects thanks to 70cm-class telescopes and advanced cameras powered by our expertise in machine learning and AI-driven algorithms.
Geostationary Orbit
GEO Tasking:
Persistent Eyes on the
Highest Orbits
Spaceflux delivers fully redundant coverage in geostationary orbit (GEO). Every Resident Space Object (RSO) is persistently tracked several times a day from multiple sites around the globe, ensuring no single-point-of-failure and continuous situational awareness.
Leveraging advanced SWIR-enabled optical sensors and AI-driven tasking, we precisely detect, track, and characterise objects as small as 10 cm, delivering intelligence you can act on immediately.
Low Earth Orbit
LEO Tracking: Minute-Level Responsiveness, Centimetre-scale Insights
In the fast-moving realm of low Earth orbit (LEO), agility and precision define mission success. Spaceflux is building Europe’s leading sovereign optical LEO surveillance capability – precise, responsive, and mission-ready.
Our LEO tracking capability delivers actionable intelligence on objects as small as 2.5 cm with sub-arcsecond accuracy. Our Cortex platform ensures data is delivered rapidly, supporting responsive alerts, and fleet-wide anomaly detection enabling instant alerts, rapid anomaly detection, and proactive asset protection.
How we do it
Our Agile Optical Sensor Network
Our global network of proprietary observatories is strategically positioned across five continents – and we’re growing rapidly. Our telescopes enable real-time tasking, multi-angle tracking, and continuous custody from LEO to GEO. With 70cm optics, SWIR cameras, and edge-processed AI, we ensure insights are delivered in seconds. By 2026, our network will span 25 sites, delivering sovereign-grade visibility to customers worldwide. Our systems are engineered for precision, autonomy, and security.

Advancing UK’s Planetary Defence: Spaceflux Network Joins UKSA’s Asteroid Monitoring Efforts
The vastness of space holds countless wonders—and potential hazards. With over 31,000 Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) currently catalogued and hundreds more discovered each month, the need for robust monitoring systems has never been more critical. Today, we’re proud to announce that Spaceflux’s global observation network is now part of the UK Space Agency’s (UKSA) contribution to the International Asteroid Warning Network (IAWN).
Navigating the Fallout: A Case Study on Spaceflux’s Role in Tracking the Intelsat 33E Fragmentation
At 04:30 UTC on 19th October 2024, the geostationary communications satellite Intelsat 33E (IS-33e) experienced a catastrophic failure, resulting in its fragmentation in geostationary orbit (GEO). Spaceflux played a pivotal role in responding to this event as the first commercial entity to publicly announce the anomaly and providing critical tracking data to government and commercial clients. This post explores the event, Spaceflux’s response, and its significance for space operations.
The Spaceflux Story: Fast Track Journey to SSA Leadership
A little more than two years. That is how much time it took us to grow from three founders with an idea at a pub in London to a company with 30 team members, 15 telescope locations across five continents, offices in two countries and multimillion contracts.
