An after-hours mixer for the people quietly building the hardest things on Earth—and beyond it.
Orbital After Dark brings together founders, engineers, researchers, investors, and operators working at the edges of space tech, nuclear, aerospace, advanced energy, propulsion, materials, and national-scale infrastructure. This is not a pitch night. It’s not a panel. It’s a room full of serious builders, off the record, in a setting designed for real conversations.
Expect a curated crowd spanning:
Space systems, launch, satellites, and orbital infrastructure
Nuclear, fusion, fission-adjacent energy and grid-scale tech
Aerospace, defense-adjacent deep tech, propulsion, materials
Advanced manufacturing, robotics, and frontier AI for physical systems
Orbital After Dark is for founders, senior engineers, scientists, investors, and operators working on technically hard problems. If your work lives at the intersection of atoms, electrons, propulsion, or orbital mechanics, this is your room.
What this is not
Not a demo day
Not a recruiting fair
Not a hype cycle
