Space missions depend on continuous access to data for navigation, communications, coordination, and research outcomes. Existing space-based networks are often fragmented, mission-specific, and constrained by coverage, bandwidth, and latency. These limitations make it harder for customers to maintain reliable contact, coordinate across assets, extract data, and deploy missions with confidence.    To address these challenges, Intuitive Machines is building a Space Data Network

Intuitive Machines welcomes Mike Betts as Vice President of National Security Space Strategy. He brings more than three decades of leadership experience in national security space, technical intelligence, and interagency strategy.    Intuitive Machines is combining the full capability of its space infrastructure, delivery, and end-to-end data services, enabling customers to securely and reliably transmit data with minimal latency for real-time decision-making, adaptive missio

Intuitive Machines’ vertical integration across space infrastructure, data, and delivery services enables the company to flexibly leverage its core technology stack and rapidly design, build, test, deploy, and operate advanced space systems. As the engine of the company’s growth strategy, this integrated approach has also informed the development of a highly flexible, scalable physical infrastructure.     The new Intuitive Machines facility at Houston Spaceport scales operati

Testing the operational readiness of lunar terrain vehicles has been challenging because Earth-based environments like rocky desert beds or confined test areas filled with small amounts of synthetic regolith lack the scale and adaptability to truly replicate the Moon’s surface conditions. Rugged and highly variable terrain, shifting shadows, extreme light and dark, and low gravity are some of the factors that affect how vehicles move, grip, and wear, but these conditions are

The lunar South Pole has drawn sustained attention from scientists, space agencies, and commercial innovators due to its potential reserves of water ice and its strategic value for long-term exploration. Deep craters remain in permanent shadow, creating cold traps where ice may have accumulated over billions of years and offer a possible source of life support and fuel for future missions. These deposits, if confirmed and accessible, could enable sustained human presence and

Space missions rely on uninterrupted access to data for navigation, communications, coordination, and research. Yet today’s space networks are often fragmented and limited by coverage, bandwidth, and latency—making it harder to maintain contact, coordinate assets, and deploy missions with confidence.    To address these challenges, Intuitive Machines is building a Space Data Network (SDN) that spans Earth proximity, cislunar, and extended cislunar regions, supporting activity
