Aerospace development and solutions for the next generation of space

WHO WE ARE

Performing the capabilities behind the next generation of space propulsion

Astra-Ion Aerospace is a Chilean deep-tech company developing a technology lab for the review, prototyping, and validation of electric space propulsion.

​

We bring engineering and experimental capabilities together to turn promising concepts into reliable engineering evidence.
