## About

Founded in 2021 and based in California, US, Turion Space Corp. specializes in satellite technology and remote sensing services. Ryan Westerdahl (CEO), Tyler Pierce, and Patryk Wiatr are the co-founders of the company. In April 2026, Turion Space Corp. raised USD 75 million in series B funding led by Washington Harbour Partners, with participation from Center15 Capital, Magnetar Venture, HOF Capital, Industrious Ventures, FoundersX Ventures, Aurelia Foundry, and Forward Deployed VC.

Turion Space Corp specializes in the development and operation of DROID satellites, utilizing its proprietary STARFIRE OS™ to enhance satellite capabilities. The firm’s core product offering includes a suite of advanced remote sensing and space mobility services aimed at addressing critical issues within the space domain. These satellites are designed to provide enhancements in understanding space environments by reducing positional uncertainty of space objects, thereby facilitating space-to-space surveillance and expanding the catalog of tracked objects. Targeting both national security and commercial markets, Turion serves a diverse client base, including government agencies, private space enterprises, and defense contractors.

The company generates revenue through a structured model that includes contracts and partnerships with government and defense entities, alongside direct sales to commercial clients. Revenue transactions are typically executed through long-term contracts that ensure ongoing support and maintenance for their satellite systems, with clients paying for access to the advanced capabilities of the DROID satellites.

The company will use the April 2026 funding to expand spacecraft production and scale its reconnaissance, imaging, and software capabilities for space operations.
