Turion Space

aid: turion-space
name: Turion Space
description: Turion Space is an Irvine, California aerospace company founded in 2021 (Y Combinator S21) that designs, builds
  and operates DROID maneuverable spacecraft for space domain awareness, non-earth imaging and in-orbit servicing, alongside
  the STARFIRE software platform for mission planning, autonomous tasking and command-and-control across Turion and third-party
  constellations. Its customer-facing surface is the STARFIRE dashboard at starfire.turionspace.com, backed by a first-party
  REST API gateway at api.app.turionspace.com that issues per-user API keys and meters imagery tasking and Starfire NEXUS
  jobs against a Stripe-billed credit balance. The company publishes no public developer portal, API reference, or machine-readable
  specification; the entire contract sits behind the STARFIRE customer login.

  description: First-party REST API gateway behind the STARFIRE customer dashboard. Route prefixes observed in the provider's
    own published dashboard bundle include /api/v1/tasking-orders, /api/v1/images/, /api/v1/turion/images/, /api/v1/nexus/builds,
    /api/v1/nexus/start-job, /api/v1/credits/balance, /api/v1/organizations/event-settings, /api/v1/stripe/checkout-session
    and /api/v1/users/api-key. The gateway is live and answers anonymously with a JSON envelope ({"error_msg":"404 Route Not
    Found"}, Go/Echo), but every route requires an authenticated STARFIRE session or API key and no public reference or specification
    is published.

  detail: Turion Space runs a real first-party REST API — its own runtime config at app.turionspace.com/config.js names URL_API_GATEWAY
    as https://api.app.turionspace.com, and the gateway answers live — but there is no /developers, /docs or /pricing page
    anywhere in the turionspace.com sitemap, and the only entry point is the STARFIRE dashboard SPA, which serves a login
    shell and holds the entire reference behind an authenticated customer session.
