Proteus Space

@NASAJPL Excited to collaborate with the @NASAJPL team on this effort!

We’re “spring”-ing forward a little early! The successful deployment of JACC – or the JPL Additive Compliant Canister – demonstrates the potential for 3D printed mechanisms for future space antennas. Learn more: jpl.nasa.gov/images/pia2670…

Another successful on-orbit payload deployment, this time via our collaboration with @NASAJPL! The JPL Additive Compliant Canister (JACC) is a deployable mechanism based on helical antenna systems. It showcases how additive manufacturing can simplify compliant mechanisms and deployable structures. About the size of a small paperback book when stowed and weighing under 500 grams, the jack-in-the-box–style system integrates its lid, canister, hinges, torsion springs, and deployable compression spring into a largely monolithic titanium structure, reducing the part count by a factor of three compared with conventional designs. The system also features a novel, embedded kinematic hinge architecture. Developed and produced in-house at JPL in less than a year from napkin sketch to delivery, JACC leverages the laboratory’s advanced additive manufacturing capabilities. Its successful on-orbit demonstration aboard the Proteus Space M1 ESPA class satellite underscores the utility of 3D printing for advanced deployable systems on future space missions. Thanks to our mission collaborators! @NASAJPL @SpaceWERXDOD @AFResearchLab @LeonardoDRSnews @ucdavis

Fresh images from #MERCURYONE taken in low earth orbit from 515km over the NW and SW pacific (near Alaska and Australia) respectively. All is going according to plan, some exciting video coming in January! @SpaceWERXDOD @US_SpaceCom @AFResearchLab @NASAJPL @LeonardoDRSnews

Proteus Space was pleased to deliver this new payload to low earth orbit radically fast, cheap and reliably, on board one of the fastest spacecraft ever designed, built and launched, #MERCURYONE #TheFutureIsFaster @SpaceWERXDOD @AFResearchLab @US_SpaceCom @LeonardoDRSnews

Proud to be selected by NASA for a game changer rapid concept development. #thefutureisfaster @NASA spacenews.com/nasa-selects-p…

Our healthy on-orbit spacecraft #MERCURYONE, with a @NASAJPL payload in view, confirms: the poles of earth are beautiful. More payload deployments coming soon! @SpaceWERXDOD @AFResearchLab @usspacecom @ucdavis @NASAJPL @LeonardoDRSnews

Did you know @usspacecom played a role in our game-changer #MERCURYONE mission? Sep 2024 = no metal, components, payloads, no design and an @AFResearchLab contract award less than 30 days old. Here's to the risk takers. @SpaceWERXDOD @ucdavis @NASAJPL @LeonardoDRSnews

“It was a huge relief when the announcement finally came through, confirming...the payload had been deployed exactly as planned.” engineering.ucdavis.edu/news/uc-davis-… @SpaceWERXDOD @AFResearchLab @usspacecom J81 @ucdavis

MERCURY ONE has been successfully integrated by Exolaunch for @SpaceX #Transporter15 🛰️ Designed in 9 months using @Proteus_Space's MERCURY platform, it carries 4 payloads and will demonstrate novel deployment mechanisms, an AI experiment and a space qualification campaign 🚀

Missile Defense Agency awards Proteus Space Prime Contractor Role on $151B MDA SHIELD MA-IDIQ. The Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ contract anticipates a period of performance of 10 years with an anticipated maximum value of $151 Billion.

SpaceWERX, Hyperspace Challenge, and OTTI are excited to work with the 10 SBIR Phase II companies selected for the 2025 Hyperspace Challenge cohort, developing solutions in data integration, PoL analysis, and digital twins. Congrats! 🎉 Get involved: hyperspacechallenge.com/2025-fall-chal…

@SpaceWERXDOD @AFResearchLab Thank you for helping to fund this mission!

Last week, Proteus Space deployed MERCURY ONE under a Follow-on Phase II from SpaceWERX and @AFResearchLab, the first spacecraft designed end-to-end by AI. 🚀 Cutting design-to-launch from years to months, this leap boosts @spaceforcedod readiness. More: spacenews.com/proteus-space-…

We're baaaaaaaack. With some space industry records. Thank you to all our collaborators, @SpaceWERXDOD @AFResearchLab @usspacecom J81 @ucdavis @NASAJPL @LeonardoDRSnews spacenews.com/proteus-space-…

@rasmusdeymeyer Thanks for the shout out! Born in Chicago now based in Los Angeles...

Proud to announce our latest Fund III investment! @Proteus_Space is building small #satellites faster and better to help the U.S. win the new #Space Race. As always, we invested in extraordinary #leadership: @unleashcraig wrote about it in our blog. medium.com/leadership-pre…
