## About

Based in South Korea and founded in 2023, SpaceLab specializes in advanced spacecraft propulsion technologies. The company develops satellite propulsion systems that combine low-toxicity propellants with electrically controlled thrust mechanisms, targeting a wide range of space missions including attitude control, orbital transfer, deorbiting, rendezvous and docking, and on-orbit servicing. SpaceLab has built in-house capabilities covering propellant synthesis and analysis, thruster design and manufacturing, combustion testing, and vacuum-environment thrust testing.
The company focuses on developing satellite propulsion systems based on low-toxicity propellants and electrically controlled thrust technologies. Its core technology enables ignition, shutdown, re-ignition, and combustion control through electrical signals, allowing operators to adjust thrust according to mission requirements. SpaceLab's product portfolio includes electrically controlled solid thrusters, electrically ignited monopropellant thrusters, and self-pressurizing premixed thrusters. These propulsion solutions are designed for satellite attitude control, orbital maneuvering, collision avoidance, deorbiting, rendezvous and docking, and future in-orbit servicing applications.
The company's revenue is generated by the development and commercialization of satellite propulsion systems and related aerospace technologies for satellite manufacturers, operators, and other participants in the space industry. The company is currently focused on validating its propulsion technologies to support future commercial adoption in domestic and international satellite markets.
The company will use funding for the development of an electrically controlled thruster to be deployed on a secondary payload satellite during the sixth Nuri rocket launch and for space-environment validation. The funding will also support the collection of in-orbit ignition, operation, and maneuvering data, helping establish flight heritage and accelerate the commercialization of its propulsion systems for domestic and international satellite manufacturers and operators.
