ExLabs plans mission to rendezvous with asteroid Apophis

SAN FRANCISCO — Exploration Labs, a Southern California startup focused on space resources, is planning a 2028 mission to rendezvous with the asteroid Apophis before it reaches Earth.

During the mission, ExLabs intends to deposit three cubesats in Apophos' orbit. The flight also is designed to validate systems and software for future campaigns to capture and move near-Earth asteroids into stable orbits for resource acquisition.

"We're creating a unique partnership to enable a new style of lower-cost missions in collaboration with government and commercial partners," ExLabs CEO Matthew Schmidgall told SpaceNews.

ExLabs is developing massive modular spacecraft to host partner payloads, plus robotics to capture and transport space objects to new locations. Space Exploration and Resource Vehicle, or SERV, is ExLabs' spacecraft to host payloads with a mass as high as 30 metric tons in its fully stacked configuration. ExLabs' Arachne Platform is designed to capture and transport noncooperative objects.
