About

Built to close one gap

The machine that could prove solar materials survive space has never been built. We exist to build it.

Founder

Daniel Natan

A chemist turned automation engineer. Twenty years building high-throughput XRD/XRF instrumentation, automated mineralogy, and the robotics and AI that turn thousands of measurements into decisions without a human in the loop.

AEVI-1 is the instrument he has spent his career learning to build. He is relocating to the Netherlands to build it, on the ESA BIC Noordwijk track.

Mission: solar power that survives space

“The bottleneck in space photovoltaics isn't an idea. It's an instrument. I build instruments.”

Why the Netherlands

Everything this company needs, within 150 km.

ESA's technology heart

ESTEC, Noordwijk: where Europe's space hardware is qualified for flight.

Europe's perovskite pilot lines

Europe's leading perovskite roll-to-roll pilot lines, the route our materials are built for.

The satellite solar-array industry

Europe's array manufacturing heritage, next to the Delft small-satellite cluster.

All within 150 km

Agency, manufacturing base, integrators, and flight opportunities, all within an hour.

A venture built to sustain itself

The analysis technology behind AEVI-1 is sold today as services to mining and materials clients. The services pay for the science.
