THE UTILITY SUITE

Standardised removal for an industrialised orbit. We provide the essential services, from clearing legacy space junk to the precision de-orbiting of retired satellites, reclaiming valuable orbital slots and ensuring your next generation of hardware has a clear path to deployment.

THE TERQUIS ADVANTAGE

Efficiency, scale, and operational reliability are at the core of our mission. We believe in providing a seamless, industrial-grade utility that takes the complexity out of space sustainability. By focusing on repeatable processes and real-world results, we make it easy for constellation operators to protect their assets and the future of the orbital environment.

Industrial DNA

We apply automotive assembly-line logic to aerospace hardware to achieve the lowest cost-per-unit in the industry. We don't build one-off experiments; we build standardised, high-volume tools for a busy orbit.

Universal Integration

The Spira Interface removes the requirements for specialised docking plates or magnetic catch-points. Our technology is designed to adapt to your existing satellite architecture, so you never have to adapt to us.

Regulatory Assurance

We provide the verified physical proof of disposal necessary to satisfy the global '5-Year Rule' for de-orbiting. Our service protects your future launch licensing, your orbital slots, and your insurance standing.

Orbital Asset Reclamation

Dead satellites don't just pose a collision risk; they occupy prime orbital real estate. TerQuis clears these 'ghost slots,' allowing you to replace end-of-life hardware with modern, revenue-generating assets without the delay of navigating around legacy debris.

SERVICE TIERS

Industrial-scale solutions for a sustainable orbit. We provide the essential infrastructure to manage your fleet's lifecycle, mitigate operational risk, and ensure your right to operate remains secure.

SWEEP: THE INDUSTRIAL JANITOR

"You wouldn't hire a scientist to empty your trash." SWEEP is our primary Active Debris Removal (ADR) service. It is designed for one thing: getting non-operational assets out of the way so you can keep working.

The Tool: A modular 2U "Predator" drone built on an automotive-style assembly line to keep costs down.

The Capture: Features the Spira Interface; four logarithmic spiral arms that wrap around any shape safely, with no special docking hardware required from you.

The Result: Fast, low-cost disposal that keeps you compliant with "5-Year Rule" regulations and lowers your insurance premiums.

REAPER: STRATEGIC ASSET RECOVERY

"Protection for your high-value investments." REAPER (Space Domain Awareness & Retrieval) is our specialised tier for government and high-end commercial needs. When an asset is too sensitive to simply de-orbit, REAPER steps in.

The Mission: Precision intercept and secure retrieval of sensitive satellites or experimental payloads.

The Tech: Advanced AI-vision combined with a high-torque variant of the Spira arms to stabilise and hold assets for relocation or inspection.

The Value: Protects proprietary technology and national interests by ensuring sensitive "ghost" satellites don't fall into the wrong hands or remain drifting as a risk.

Path to Orbital Clearance

Working with TerQuis: The 5 Stages of Mission Success

  • When a customer identifies a defunct satellite or high-risk debris object, the process begins by assessing its "debris-generating potential." We evaluate the object's mass, current altitude, and "tumble rate" (how fast it is spinning) to determine the best intercept strategy.

    Key Deliverable: A formal Risk Mitigation Report outlining the urgency and technical requirements for removal.

  • Unlike satellites not yet launched, pre-existing assets often require navigating "contested responsibility" and complex international guidelines. TerQuis handles the legal and insurance filings required to take over control or clear an uncooperative target in Low Earth Orbit (LEO).

    Key Deliverable: Approved Orbital Removal License and verified mission-safe trajectory.

  • Our Sweep 2U Platform is launched into the target's orbital plane. Using onboard AI-vision, the "Predator" drone initiates a client search and autonomous rendezvous, matching its velocity and rotation to the tumbling object.

    Key Deliverable: Successful Proximity Operations (RPO) and sub-arcsecond visual lock on the target.

  • Utilising our universal Spira arms, the Predator executes a "soft-touch" capture. Because our interface is designed for legacy assets, it can grab non-functional satellites that were never originally equipped for docking or removal.

    Key Deliverable: Physical Mating & Capture of the hazardous asset.

  • Once the "Predator" and "Prey" are securely mated, the platform initiates a controlled de-orbit burn. We guide the stack into a precise trajectory toward the Earth's atmosphere, where the asset safely burns up, permanently clearing that orbital slot for the customer.

    Key Deliverable: Verified Atmospheric Re-entry and certificate of orbital clearance.

THE FUTURE OF SCALE.

BEYOND THE LAUNCHPAD lives THE ORBITAL HIVE.

Orbital Hive

The Hive is our roadmap to a zero-wait orbit…. By pre-positioning carrier platforms in high-density shells, we eliminate the 12-month ground-launch delay. Our Hive-based 'Cleanup-on-Demand' service provides deployment in hours, ensuring that a single failure never becomes a fleet-wide catastrophe.
