About
Founded in 2023, Aethero designs and manufactures space-qualified computers and edge processing modules. Its systems use modern high-power chips (such as NVIDIA Orin GPUs) and advanced architectures to provide powerful on-board data processing and AI/ML capabilities. This enables applications like real-time image processing, autonomous navigation, and edge analytics in orbit. Aethero’s first product provides orders-of-magnitude more compute performance than legacy space computers. The company has raised significant seed funding (~$8.4M) and plans to launch demonstration satellites to validate its technology. Aethero is targeting both defense and commercial markets with its plug-and-play space computing solutions.
