First, we are Industrializing deep space.
Infrastructure precedes everything. Before the first lunar mine can operate, before a human crew can be sustained at the south pole, before space resources can be returned to the Earth at commercial scale, the operating environment must first exist. Power. Data. Communications. Navigation. Logistics.
Extraterrestrial backs platforms who are developing and financing this foundational layer. First for the Moon, then Mars, the Asteroid Belt, then on to the broader solar system. We build it as open infrastructure, governed by transparent standards and accessible to every operator in the deep space economy. Our model is based on the modern multi-modal port: open access, commercial terms, scaled to demand.

Our development mandate extends from geostationary orbit to the heliopause. We begin where commercial demand is earliest and most certain — the lunar surface and cislunar space — and build outward. Each infrastructure element is structured to generate its own returns through long-term offtake agreements and as-a-service contracts, while simultaneously de-risking and enabling the MineCo and BaseCo platforms that asset companies on it.

The following five systems form the initial build-out. Each is designed as a standalone asset company with institutional financing structures, capable of attracting sleeved infrastructure financing from sovereign wealth, pension and reinsurance funds independently.
Common infrastructure elements for the deep space economy.
Nuclear and Solar Surface Power (PWR)
Modular 100kW-class fission reactors with Brayton power cycle, modeled after NASA's Fission Surface Power programme and subsequently deployed as dedicated power sources for Extraterrestrial backed MineCos and BaseCos. De-risked by NASA Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) and substantial government non-dilutive risk-reduction funding for both nuclear and solar facilities. The energy foundation without which permanent lunar operations are not viable.
01
Communications and Data Relay (COM)
A constellation of communications and data relay satellites in lunar orbit and at Lagrange points, providing 24/7 high-capacity relay across cislunar space. Modular bus architecture, extensible for growth, structured around offtake agreements with NASA, Artemis Accords signatories, and commercial mining operators.
02
Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT)
A dedicated lunar PNT satellite network providing the precision positioning and timing on which autonomous mining robotics, surface logistics, and human base management all depend. Structured as a navigation utility with subscription services to MineCo and BaseCo operators, the lunar equivalent of GPS, built for a far more demanding operating environment.
03
Data Centers and Edge Compute (DAT)
On-surface and low-lunar-orbit data centres co-developed with hyperscalers adapting for deep space. Supporting operational autonomy, real-time communications, and zero-trust cybersecurity across lunar and Martian infrastructure. Structured as a data utility or as-a-service OpCos, the compute backbone of the deep space economy.
04
Moonport and Marsport Logistics (PRT)
Hardened launch and landing pads, blast berms, interconnecting lunar surface roads and railways, and multimodal logistics depots for repair, recharge, and freight handling. Moonports and Marsports operate as commercial infrastructure — open access, like a terrestrial seaport or airport — serving both autonomous robotic mining operations and human-crewed bases. The logistical connective tissue of the deep space economy.
