Opterus is structured and staffed to support government prime, government subcontract, and commercial projects.
Opterus is an advanced structures company developing technologies to allow spacecraft components to fold compactly for launch and expand 10 to 1000x in length, area and volume once on orbit. Our core technologies include space flight mechanisms and high strain composite (HSC) booms, hinges, solar array structures, antennas, reflectors and robotic architectures. Opterus has achieved successful space flight heritage and is continuing to expand on our past performance. We’ve launched and deployed over a dozen high strain composite enabled structures since 2018 with 100% operational success.
