About GITAI

GITAI is a space robotics startup based on Torrance, California. After three successful in-space demonstrations of our robotics and satelite technologies, this spring we were selected as the prime contractor for a major U.S. Space Force program focused on space-based missile defense. We're now expanding the team across robotics, satellites and solid rock motors.
