Enabling the
Lunar Economy
Delivering modular infrastructure and advanced software for the rapid scaling of lunar operations. Our approach integrates terrestrial green energy expertise with deep space ambitions.
Prospecting & Resource ID
Effective utilization requires a structured, data-driven path to "Ore Definition".
Regional Reconnaissance
Analysis of public datasets (observation missions), ground data, and academic research to develop deposition models.
Point Prospecting
Ground confirmation via orbital kinetic impactors. The most cost-effective method for initial sampling.
Resource Extension
Deploying surface rovers for trenching and shallow drilling to confirm lateral extent of mineralization.
Precision Navigation (PNT)
A multi-mode architecture designed for the South Pole's challenging environment (no GPS, extreme terrain).
LCRNS Beacon Network
Fixed beacon network (20 nodes / 10km²) using Ultra-wideband (UWB) radio ranging.
CSAC Array
Chip-Scale Atomic Clocks (15 total) providing distributed timing during radio outages.
PNT Fusion Software (Washington DC Hub)
Adaptive Kalman Filter algorithms integrate LCRNS, CSAC, IMU, and Visual Odometry data, dynamically weighting sources to optimize accuracy in real-time.
Power & ISRU
Leveraging terrestrial green hydrogen expertise from our Denver, Colorado facility to enable lunar propellant production.
Solar Arrays
Optimized vertical configuration for South Pole low-angle light.
DRPS
Dynamic Radioisotope Power Systems for continuous baseline loads.
SWIPT Beaming
Wireless info & power transfer to mobile assets.
ISRU: Water Ice Processing
Using Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC) technology (>90% efficiency) to convert lunar ice into propellant.
Core Capability Matrix
Our internal roadmap drives the following critical infrastructure developments.
| Capability Area | Description | Relevance to Constanellis |
|---|---|---|
| Excavation & Construction (E&C) | Autonomous excavation of regolith/ice, construction of landing pads, roads, habitats, maintenance systems |
HIGH Excavators and construction equipment require continuous power; Constanellis provides the power distribution backbone. |
| In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) | Collection, processing, storage, use of lunar materials (water, oxygen, metals); autonomous resource extraction |
CRITICAL ISRU plants consume significant power (1000s of watts continuous); power distribution is essential for resource processing. |
| Surface Power | Continuous day/night power generation and distribution; solar, nuclear, battery systems |
PRIMARY Constanellis's core focus: power distribution, storage, and management for lunar surface operations. |
| Extreme Environments | Operation in extreme lunar conditions (temperature swings -150°C to +120°C, radiation, vacuum) |
CORE Constanellis systems must survive/thrive in these conditions. |
| Crosscutting Capabilities (CC) | Integrated systems: communications, navigation, thermal management, contamination control |
MEDIUM Constanellis power systems integrate with thermal, comms, and environmental control. |
| Dust Mitigation | Technologies to protect equipment from lunar dust damage |
MEDIUM Power systems must tolerate/avoid dust contamination; opportunity for integrated solutions. |
Open Collaboration
Our "Open Lunar" philosophy invites researchers to contribute. We apply modern SaaS architecture and AI-assisted systems to autonomous lunar operations.
