Impulse Space

Impulse Space is an American aerospace company founded in 2021 by Tom Mueller, building in-space transportation and mobility infrastructure. The company designs and operates orbital transfer vehicles (OTVs) that host, maneuver, and deliver payloads across and between orbits for commercial, civil, and government customers. Its product line includes Mira, an agile spacecraft for precise payload hosting and deployment across any orbit; Helios, a high-energy kick stage capable of moving up to 4,000 kg of payload from Low Earth Orbit to Geostationary Orbit in under 24 hours; and a GEO Rideshare program offering economical access to geostationary orbit. Impulse Space is a hardware and launch-services company rather than a software API provider, and does not publish a public developer portal, API, or SDKs. This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of DCVC and Founders Fund and enriched from the company's public website.
