Pioneering Stratospace for a more resilient and sustainable world– with the Zephyr High Altitude Platform Station
UNLOCKING STRATOSPACE
+ ABOUT AALTO +
AALTO was founded in 2022 to commercialise Stratospace: a new operational layer of the atmosphere between most air traffic and low-Earth orbit. With Zephyr, the most advanced high-altitude platform globally, we can deliver connectivity and Earth observation services to commercial and government partners.
After significant advances in battery and solar cell technology, alongside continued investment in designing and manufacturing HAPS, Zephyr has emerged as the leader in a new domain of aerospace.
AALTO’s hybrid, dual-use platform is at the nexus of UAVs, satellites, connectivity and aviation. With a world-record of 67 days continuous solar-powered flight, Zephyr combines persistency with precision, high-quality data and operational flexibility.
