Starfish Space

Starfish Space is a satellite-servicing company founded in 2019 by Trevor Bennett and Austin Link and headquartered in the Seattle, Washington area (Tukwila). It builds Otter, a small, low-cost, electrically propelled servicing vehicle that performs autonomous rendezvous, proximity operations and docking (RPOD) with satellites that were never designed to be serviced — extending their life, relocating them, or disposing of them at end of mission. Its Otter Pup demonstration missions target the first-ever commercial satellite docking in low Earth orbit, and the company has been awarded a $54.5M U.S. Space Force contract for a dedicated Otter servicing vehicle. Starfish Space publishes no developer product API; the machine-readable surface catalogued here is the public WordPress REST API and the OAuth-protected Model Context Protocol (MCP) server served from starfishspace.com.

Starfish Space publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Website Content API. Tagged areas include Company, Aerospace, Space, Satellites, and Satellite Servicing.

Starfish Space’s developer surface includes authentication, engineering blog, support, and 21 more developer resources.
