About Us
At Off Planet Research, we strive to enable a meaningful, enduring human presence beyond Earth orbit by helping organizations learn how to live and work on the Moon and other worlds safely and productively. In order to facilitate this goal, we produce high quality simulants that emulate the regolith and ices on the Moon, Mars, and other planetary bodies. In addition to producing simulants, we design, adapt, and test components and processes for inclusion in future lunar and off world missions.
Off Planet Research is a member of the LEAG Commercial Advisory Board and a LSIC Member Institution.
OPR is proudly supported by NSF America’s Seed Fund to expand icy regolith simulant research and production.
OPR has been awarded NASA SBIRs to develop fluid and gas connectors, seals, and covers for dusty environments.
