We are an end-to-end space mobility operator.
Exotrail is a #space company which designs, develops, and operate mobility solutions for an agile space. Our mission is to allow small satellite to move in space, so that we can optimize their deployment, increase their performances and reduce space pollution. Thanks to this, a new world of telecommunication, Earth observation and space exploration will arise. Our mobility solutions range from highly flexible high-thrust propulsion systems for small satellites (ExoMG™), mission simulation and operation software (ExoOPS™), and orbital transfer vehicles (SpaceVan™).
