Plasma Orbital
Sovereign orbital ISR for maritime domain awareness
AI micro-satellites with onboard intelligence that spot and identify every vessel in a nation's waters in real-time, even the ones running dark.

01 — The problem
Nations cannot secure what they cannot see.
Dark vessels, spoofed signals, and disabled transponders create blind spots across national waters. The oceans span 361 million km2, yet persistent maritime awareness remains out of reach.

annual loss from illegal fishing
spent annually on maritime security without persistent coverage
The numbers behind the threat, and how we close the gap.

Operating principle
Sees
Our satellites sweep your entire maritime zone. All of it.
Thinks
Onboard AI identifies every vessel — with or without AIS.
Tells
Intelligence in real-time. Not in days.
02 — EdisonSat
EdisonSat doesn't just take pictures. It understands them.
Traditional satellites deliver images. Operators perform the analysis later.
EdisonSat is designed to shift intelligence generation into orbit. Onboard AI processes imagery at the edge, identifies vessels of interest, and transmits only what matters.
Subsystems, the AI payload, and how we stage the pathfinder.
Your waters.
Your satellites.
Your call.
Other constellations sell you a feed. Plasma Orbital gives you a fleet — sovereign infrastructure your nation owns, controls, and answers to no one about.
04 — Traction
People keep backing us.
From national space programs to the engineering platforms we build on. Nine partners and programs have backed the build.
05 — Team
Big ambitions. Higher orbits.
The team building the orbital infrastructure layer for planet Earth.
06 — Get in touch
The age of the dark fleet is ending.
Be there when the lights come on. Tell us about your maritime domain and we will arrange a briefing.
