What this title covers

Depot architectures and docking standards, separating operators that have flown hardware from designs that have not, plus the question underneath both: who is actually buying on-orbit servicing.

Coverage follows the same standard as every other title in the network: each figure carries its source and its development stage, so a laboratory result is never presented as something you can order. Read the methodology.

Market context

How large the aerospace segment this title covers is, and how fast it is projected to grow.

Aerospace

Market size
USD 3.1 to 4.7 billion (2025)
Projected
USD 9.5 to 12.6 billion (2035)
CAGR
10.4% to 11.7% (2025-2035)

Both forecasts size on-orbit servicing as a whole, including life extension and debris removal, so refuelling is one segment inside these figures rather than the whole of them.
