Infinite Orbits Expands into Luxembourg with LMO Acquisition

On Thursday 26 February 2026, Infinite Orbits, a French NewSpace company specialising in GEO in-orbit services, announced its acquisition of LMO's Luxembourg-based operations after years of partnership; LMO is a Luxembourg space company specialising in autonomous space systems.

According to Infinite Orbits, this acquisition:

• establishes Infinite Orbits’ operational presence in Luxembourg, reinforcing its European footprint after the expansion of its team in France and in Spain;
• strengthens its Orbit Guard servicer, Infinite Orbits’ geostationary surveillance micro satellite, with advanced autonomous SSA software;
• strengthens rendezvous and proximity operations capabilities for in-orbit servicing missions like its life extension servicer, Endurance;
• consolidates sovereign expertise within the European ecosystem of two companies partnering for years.

The company added that it "marks a strategic step" in Infinite Orbits’ ambition to "build a European sovereign infrastructure in orbit at a time when protection of high-value assets has become a structural priority for governments and operators worldwide."

The acquisition, which will be fully finalised within fifteen days, will establish Infinite Orbits’ permanent footprint in Luxembourg - described as one of Europe's most dynamic space hubs.

The company said it plans to build on the existing team and expand its local presence and deepen collaboration with existing and new partners, building on long-standing engagements within the Luxembourgish ecosystem. This move is expected to strengthen both Luxembourg's role in Europe's space landscape and Infinite Orbits' commitment to long-term industrial anchoring across key European markets.

Luxembourg's Minister of the Economy, SMEs, Energy and Tourism, Lex Delles, stated: "The acquisition of LMO by Infinite Orbits further demonstrates Luxembourg's ability to attract leading players in the space sector. By bringing together LMO with Infinite Orbits, we are not only strengthening our national space ecosystem, but also contributing to Europe's strategic autonomy in the monitoring and protection of critical orbital infrastructure. Attracting new companies while consolidating those that choose to grow here reinforces our technological sovereignty, creates high‑value jobs and strengthens Luxembourg's position as a leading space nation."

Orbit Guard™ is designed to inspect, monitor and safeguard geostationary satellites in increasingly complex and contested orbital environments. By integrating LMO's software capabilities, Infinite Orbits said it is enhancing its ability to deliver advanced on-board monitoring, improve space situational awareness and long-term protection of strategic space assets by delivering fast and already processed data. The reported objective is to provide end users with processed data, enabling them to make quick and informed decisions.

The transaction brings together in-orbit servicing and advanced orbital data analytics within a single European industrial framework. It is also expected to reinforce Infinite Orbits' position as a company not only operating in space, but also contributing to the architecture of Europe's long-term orbital security and resilience.

Adel Haddoud, CEO of Infinite Orbits, commented: "Europe's space sovereignty depends on mastering and consolidating the technologies that protect our infrastructure in orbit. By integrating LMO's expertise, we are reinforcing Orbit Guard's technological backbone and taking another step toward building Europe's surveillance capacities."

Michel Poucet, CEO of LMO, added: "By joining Infinite Orbits, we are vertically integrating advanced Space Situational Awareness and Rendezvous capabilities with proven in-orbit servicing platforms. Together, we are uniting complementary European expertise to build a resilient, sovereign and fully integrated space surveillance capability for the long term."
