Star Catcher is an energy company building a power grid in space, providing the infrastructure to enable the next generation of spacecraft and advanced missions. Star Catcher removes power as a limiting factor for spacecraft, allowing continuous mission execution, increased operational endurance, and the ability to support higher power payloads without redesigning existing platforms.
Founded in 2024 by Andrew Rush and Michael Snyder (Made In Space, Redwire), alongside Bryan Lyandvert (T-Bird Capital, Amazon), the company has raised $88M to date from B Capital, Shield Capital, Cerberus Ventures, Initialized Capital, among others. Based in Jacksonville, FL, the company currently holds the world record for optical power beaming.
