Ibadan, 3 March 2026. – Infinite Orbits has announced the acquisition of UK-based Lúnasa Space, marking its establishment in the United Kingdom and reinforcing its ‘Endurance’ life-extension servicer through enhanced rendezvous and docking capabilities. The acquisition comes as the UK places growing emphasis on in-orbit servicing and proximity operations technologies.
Following the recent acquisition and integration of LMO in Luxembourg, this move represents a further step in Infinite Orbits’ European expansion. With operations now anchored across France, Luxembourg, Spain and the United Kingdom, the company continues to strengthen the technical foundations of its in-orbit servicing roadmap.
Additionally, a UK operational and engineering footprint strengthens Infinite Orbits’ long-term engagement with the British space ecosystem, enabling closer collaboration with UK-based industrial partners, research institutions and institutional stakeholders.
“I’m pleased to welcome Infinite Orbits to the UK space sector,” remarked Dr Paul Bate, CEO of the UK Space Agency. “Safe rendezvous and proximity operations are essential to our mission to make space more sustainable and unlock the full potential of in‑orbit servicing, assembly and manufacturing.
“This acquisition is a vote of confidence in British engineering talent and the great team at Lúnasa, and it strengthens the ecosystem we need to deliver new satellite life‑extension and servicing capabilities,” added the CEO.
Lúnasa brings specialized expertise in rendezvous, proximity operations, and docking technologies, along with a payload AIT facility and advanced testing infrastructure dedicated to mission validation and proximity operations development.
Furthermore, the integration of Lúnasa’s technical IP, engineering talent and facilities strengthens the technical backbone of Infinite Orbits’ servicing fleet and directly supports the advancement of its flagship life-extension servicer, Endurance.
“We have always believed that the future of the European space industry depends on collaboration rather than fragmentation, that’s the DNA of Infinite Orbits,” explained Adel Haddoud, CEO of Infinite Orbits.
“This acquisition embodies that conviction: by joining forces with outstanding expertise from across Europe, we are reinforcing our leadership in the international market of in-orbit services, and we are protecting our European sovereign expertise.”
Integrating Lúnasa’s engineering resources into its ongoing life-extension missions and Endurance’s roadmap will subsequently support Infinite Orbit’s continued development of safe, reliable and competitive proximity operations and servicing technologies.
