Blue Origin is partnering with Scout Space to launch the Owl AI-powered space surveillance sensor on its Blue Ring spacecraft in Spring 2026, aiming to enhance space situational awareness and support national security by detecting and tracking objects in orbit, including debris and satellites, from geostationary transfer orbit to operational geostationary orbit.
Scout Space, in partnership with Stanford University, has been awarded a $1.5 million contract extension by the U.S. Space Force to help characterize spacecraft and debris objects as part of the Orbital Prime project. The project aims to develop technologies for debris removal and in-space services. Scout Space, a startup focused on on-orbit navigation and tracking, won the Phase 2 Small Business Technology Transfer contract, requiring collaboration with academic or nonprofit institutions. The partnership with Stanford University's Space Rendezvous Laboratory will advance technologies for in-space servicing, assembly, and manufacturing, including the deployment of new machine learning algorithms for autonomous spacecraft navigation.
