Problem
Space logistics currently lack a dedicated, reusable spacecraft capable of transporting large volumes of pressurized and unpressurized cargo, as well as crew, between low‑Earth orbit assets and lunar destinations. Existing solutions rely on multiple specialized vehicles, leading to high costs, limited payload capacity, and fragmented supply chains.
Solution
EDEN Prime is a modular orbital logistics spacecraft designed to operate continuously in orbit, providing up to 134 t of total payload capacity split between pressurized and unpressurized cargo. Its forward section offers 174 m³ of pressurized volume and a birthing port compatible with International Birthing Mechanisms for seamless integration with other orbital platforms. The mid‑section houses core spacecraft systems, while the aft section contains propulsion, reaction control, and a docking port with a 4 m³ pressurized passage. An optional EDEN Service Module extends the vehicle’s orbital range and enables trans‑lunar injection, allowing the same platform to serve as an Earth‑Lunar shuttle. This architecture consolidates cargo transport, crew transfer, and orbital refueling into a single reusable vehicle, simplifying supply chains and reducing launch costs.
Target Audience
Primary customers are satellite operators, lunar mission planners, and commercial space logistics providers that require high‑capacity, reusable transport between LEO assets and lunar destinations.
Features
- Pressurized forward module with 174 m³ volume and International Birthing Mechanism compatible port
- Unpressurized cargo capacity of 34 t and pressurized cargo capacity of 41.8 t
- Modular mid‑section containing spacecraft subsystems and 92 m³ internal volume for systems integration
- Aft section with main engines, reaction control thrusters, control‑momentum gyroscopes, and 4 m³ pressurized docking passage
- Optional EDEN Service Module for extended orbital trajectories and trans‑lunar injection capability
- Designed for continuous in‑orbit operation throughout its service life, eliminating the need for multiple dedicated vehicles
