Orbit Fab was founded in 2018 to eliminate the single-use spacecraft paradigm with in-space refueling. Spacecraft are still limited to the amount of fuel they are launched with, which limits flexibility and poses long-term risks to the space environment. The company proved their concept during their mission to resupply water to the ISS, and they later launched the first commercial fuel depot into LEO.

A Permanent Off-World Economy Starts In A Garage With A Gas Cap This week's episode features Orbit Fab. Don't let the cute name fool you. Starting with the space-equivalent of a gas cap, this company has caught the attention of the U.S. Space Force, the Defense Innovation Unit, and the National Reconnaissance Office, in the form of multi-million-dollar checks. Laura Winter speaks with Orbit Fab's Co-Founder and CEO Daniel Faber about how he plans to build critical energy and chemicals infrastructure in space for defense and a permanent off-world economy.

Ever been censored?  Well, tune in tonight and see what motivated this dentist to speak out about what he had been seeing!  Some would have run, and others would have been motivated.  Dr. Faber is using his experience to impact our profession in many ways.Dr. Daniel Faber (Dan) is guided by a mission to impact access to HIGHER QUALITY oral healthcare for all here in the US and globally and he's attacking it a few different ways that may surprise you.  After building his 2005 scratch practice based on his focus on building rapport and collaboration with patients in providing actual comprehensive care, he sold the practice and pivoted his career to expand his impact on dentists and patients.  He consulted with other dentists, even dabbled with a dental tech startup and then pursued a MPH (masters in public health). This led to discovering a passion and talent for teaching with a more practical and creative approach to D3 and D4s at dental school where he confronted concerning behaviors and direction of the administration.  He left the school recently after speaking up publicly about what he was seeing which has since expanded the conversation more by what others are experiencing in their institutions.Dan continues to speak out and advocate for aspiring and current dental students, younger dentists, the profession and of course for the public, our patients.  He still treats patients part time, is exploring more direct ways to continue to teach dentists and other opportunities to work and get involved with grassroots public health endeavors for dental care.

Jeremy Schiel is the Co-Founder and Chief Development Officer at Orbit Fab and a leading entrepreneur in the growing in-space economy. Spacecraft are no longer restricted to the fuel they are launched with. Orbit Fab delivers the fuel and other materials that are required, where and when they are needed, to enable business models never before thought possible. In this episode, Ben and Jeremy discuss getting to orbit in year 1, the challenges of “building an empire” and why we should hope for a Mc Donalds in space!  Please support this podcast by checking out our sponsor: Spaced Ventures: https://www.spacedventures.com/ to invest into shares of actual space startups!

Satellites must carry all their fuel with them to orbit. Higher cost, less maneuverability, slow decision making. OrbitFab is developing Gas stations in space, and tankers to transport the fuel to a satellite. This extends their life, increases their area of operations, and reduces the cost of launch. Daniel Faber is the passionate Newzelander leading the charge to supply fuel in orbit. https://www.orbitfab.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielfaber/

Gas stations in space, a historic breakthrough that will fuel a booming space economy. Daniel Faber, Orbit Fab's CEO, breaks down the current space refueling dilemma–all spacecrafts only have one tank of fuel–and how their space tankers and shuttles have overcome this challenge to open up the solar system for business.

On this weeks episode of the Space Economy podcast, my guest is Daniel Faber, Co-founder, and CEO of Orbit Fab, a startup looking to set up Gas Stations in Space They've already completed a technology demonstration on the International Space Station, they've raised some money, and they're trying to make the concept of fuel depots in space, a reality.

Gas stations in space! Orbit Fab's CEO, Daniel Faber, is working to build the first and only propellant supply chain in space and make satellites reusable, so we can stop throwing away billions of dollars' worth of fully operational assets every year.  We chatted with Daniel about the need for refueling satellites and how Orbit Fab is providing the infrastructure to increase the lifespan of them. He tells us about tow trucks in space and how his previous company, Deep Space Industries, is working towards the goal of mining asteroids. He also shares lessons learned from being a serial entrepreneur while working on his now fourth start-up space company.

Out of this world conversations about mining in outer space, with the people going after it. In this episode, we learn about the history of the asteroid mining industry, and gain insight into the steps being made to move humanity off-earth. Guest: Daniel Faber - CEO of Orbit Fab and pioneer in space materials, entertainment, and mining technologies. Website: www.orbitfab.space LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/danielfaber/

"Gas stations in space" is Daniel Faber's current mission as CEO of Orbit Fab - but his resumé also includes having been CEO of asteroid mining company DSI. Him & E2MC's Raphael Roettgen discuss both of these experiences as well as the development of a space economy in general.

Past Deep Space Industries CEO Daniel Faber today runs a company called OrbitFab. As a pioneer of space mining and resources development, what is Dan doing now? Kickstarting the next massive new space economy by creating "Gas stations in space", that's what! With host Jason Kanigan of the Cold Star Project, Daniel Faber discusses: how he got into asteroid mining as a business, and what the process was like getting the concepts and people of DSI together if DSI had gotten the tech and finances in place to start mining Near Earth Objects, what the first thing would have been that Dan would have wanted to do with those resources as they were brought back and processed what he would do differently if he had it to do all over again OrbitFab's mission and whether any "legacy goals" from DSI continue his educational experience in Antarctica and how that affected his point of view in the space field and more! I was impressed with Dan's experience with building space companies with investors...it's a minefield and he has some powerful knowledge of what to avoid.

If you're a serial entrepreneur and you want to start a New Space company, what type of business should you start? Well, how about Gas Stations in Space? In this weeks SpaceQ podcast we're featuring a Future in Space Operations weekly teleconference from earlier this year with Daniel Faber, CEO of startup Orbit Fab. Daniel, an Australian who become a Canadian citizen, was most recently the CEO of Deep Space Industries which he helped build, and which reached $10 million in revenues before he left. It was during his time at Deep Space Industries that he saw an opportunity in the on-orbit servicing market. Why not build gas stations in different orbits so that satellites can fill up on fuel. Listen in

My guest this week is Grant Bonin, Chief Technology Officer of Deep Space Industries. Deep Space Industries is a five year old privately held company spacecraft technology with a long term plan of mining asteroids that has adapted its business for the long game. At the time the company launched, some people wondered if the idea was crazy. It’s not, but it is hard, and It’s a long game. Deep Space industries (DSI) is still here and apparently has adapted its business plan to meet the challenge and has been working on developing technologies needed for its long term goals but which have commercial appeal now allowing them to generate revenue streams now. Since the company was formed they've sparsely released information. Last year when Daniel Faber, the CEO at the time, left the company, he said not too long afterwards that he was proud of having led the company to sales in the area of $10 million in 2016. That was really the first public acknowledgement of any sales volume. With DSI's products, most notably Comet, its water-based SmallSat propulsion system set to fly on four customer satellites this year, the company is slowly emerging from the shadows. As well, the company will be shortly announcing its first Series A funding meant to accelerate their Mission 1, a technology demonstration spacecraft which they hope to launch to a near-earth asteroid in 2020. This week they also announced that they've sold another Comet propulsion system to Astro Digital. According to Grant, that's the 34th propulsion unit they've sold. Listen to the podcast for a complete update on DSI's activities.

It’s fall time and in honor of that we’re blowing up a balloon to keep track of our points this week as we review- SIMON SAYS, SHE FLYS, PIZZA JAMMERS and the star-studded 2011 film FINDER’S KEEPERS. This week’s episode is brought to you by 4.HATS.COM, DANIEL FABER, and THE VHS CLASSIC. Thanks for listening and as always- please visit our website at onetworeview.com and let us know about a movie that you would like for us to review.

Daniel Faber, a Pioneer of Space Technologies and Mining, and currently President and CEO of Heliocentric Technologies and Advisor to National Space Society in the United States, participate in Risk Roundup to discuss Space Mining. Space Mining The democratization of Space seems to be on its way as terrestrial planets, gas giants, Trojan asteroids, and […] The post Space Mining appeared first on Risk Group.

“It'd be a good thing to get people off Earth,” and with that, this Future Tech podcast, Exploring Deep Space, really begins as we visit with Daniel Faber, former CEO of Deep Space Industries (DSI). Although no longer with DSI, Faber is continuing to honor his calling and pursue his goal: planning and being prepared for the inevitability that is humans living off-Earth. The risks inherent to us here on Earth (meteorites or global cataclysms, for instance) can be mitigated by a move into space, Faber points out. Currently, he works on models that would make it feasible for permanent human off-Earth settlements. He also gives his thoughts on how soon humanity will be able to live permanently off-Earth and how, once a certain goal is realized, the rest of the dominoes will fall. You'll also learn how he sincerely believes that it will be more economical to live off-Earth than on Earth—you'll shake your head in wonder when you hear how this is possible (we did!). Faber finishes by mentioning the endless number of entrepreneurial possibilities that have yet to be realized, endeavors just waiting for creative, innovative thinkers to brainstorm and create them. If you're a serial entrepreneur yearning for a way to pioneer an industry or product that currently does not exist, you'll want to hear the 4 industries Faber suggests, including 2 that have no competition – yet. At the end of this podcast, Faber reveals how enterprising thinkers can get in touch with him, so listen ASAP and get ahead of the crowd. You'll also learn: * Why he thinks the first permanent off-Earth human civilizations will not be on Mars, the moon, or places like that but will instead be in a much better, much more hospitable place—and why it's better * The #1 reason that will successfully encourage people to live off-Earth—and until this happens, humans won't live off-planet * That while solving issues with getting water and growing enough food in space are crucial, there's something more important than either for humans to be able to live in space Listen, Share and Subscribe to get the latest, news and updates in technology.

2015 was a good year for outer space. Star Wars: Episode VII came out, NASA started hiring astronauts again, SpaceX successfully launched and returned a rocket, and the U.S. Congress passed the SPACE Act of 2015—a bill that gives any American who extracts resources from an asteroid legal rights to the bounty they reap. Since no one has yet mined an asteroid this legislation might seem premature, but it’s essential to the future of two Silicon Valley asteroid mining companies. That’s right, they already exist. They’re just waiting for humans to start colonizing space. Reporters Katie Gilbert and Annie Costakis talk to Daniel Faber, the founder of Deep Space Industries, about his dream: to build the space equivalent of Home Depot, as well as fueling stations and manufacturing plants. They also explain a few of the untested theories behind asteroid mining. We wanted to know more about the history of space dreaming and space colonies, so we talked to Patrick McCray, a historian of science and technology and the author of The Visioneers: How a Group of Elite Scientists Pursued Space Colonies, Nanotechnologies, and a Limitless Future. He says utopian space visions have long filled the heads of scientifically minded dreamers, especially when life on Earth isn’t going so well.   Show Clock: 00:03 Introduction01:26 Will asteroid mining save us?12:40 Who were the visioneers?
