Business Road Map Cost efficient high value space telescopes Unique business model Deployable optics technology Asteroid mining Priority on metal asteroids Exponential Space Manufacturing Fully automated In-Space manufacturing

Space Telescopes

Space Telescope Business The first commercial space telescope, for both Earth observation and space astronomy Maximize revenue Earth observation on daytime side Astronomy on night time side

Why Astronomy From Space Always perfect observing conditions Free of weather problems, atmospheric distortion, light pollution from city lights 24 hour operation, not just at night Longer camera exposure times Both Northern and Southern hemispheres are viewable All IR and UV wavelengths viewable, unblocked by atmosphere

Space Observatory Services Market $100M annual Total Available Market for professional and amateur astronomers Only a few professional and amateur astronomers have access to a space based telescope severe shortage of availability Market can be profitably serviced from our initial satellite Working with a major US university on multi-million dollar NSF funded program, US colleges get access to our space telescope

Earth Observation Services Market $1.6B annual Total Available Market Commercial mapping Agriculture analysis Pollution monitoring Weather prediction Security and Defense

Waypoint Space Telescope Satellite Design, build, and launch satellite #1 in 2019 A corporate partner will subsidize the launch cost 18 kg, 12U cubesat Corrected Dall Kirkham telescope, 21 cm diameter Deployable secondary mirror cuts spacecraft structure cost and launch cost in half Image processing accelerated by on-board hardware Three powerful cameras
