About Reflect Orbital
Reflect Orbital builds space-enabled infrastructure that redirects sunlight from orbit to precise locations on Earth using mirror satellites. Its Lighting Service adjusts brightness from full moon to full noon, and its Energy Service is designed to raise solar farm output. Spots can be ordered on demand in approved locations and turned off at any time.
Applications listed include energy, disaster response, industrial work sites, agriculture, street lighting, defense and events. Light is provided only when requested and approved by the appropriate local authorities, and the company says it avoids sensitive areas such as astronomy observatories and protected habitats.
The company's published roadmap shows 2 satellites in 2026, 38 in 2027, over 1,000 in 2028, over 5,000 in 2030 and over 50,000 in 2035, with the Energy Service still in testing through 2028. Co-founders are Ben Nowack (CEO) and Tristan Semmelhack (CPO). Open engineering roles are listed in Hawthorne, California, and a government partnerships role in Washington, D.C.
Product: Reflected sunlight as a service: a Lighting Service and an Energy Service delivered by a constellation of orbital mirror satellites, ordered via app or website.
