With decades of flight heritage and world-leading space missions, the company is at the forefront of the global space economy.
While MDA is getting ready to deliver Canadarm3 to the Artemis program, it’s also developing a suite of commercial space robotics enabled by the Canadarm3 technology, paving the way for a range of new business models and commercial uses in orbit. MDA’s first commercial sale of Canadarm3 technology was to Axiom Space, and it has joined forces with Lockheed Martin and General Motors to develop a next-generation lunar rover, which will integrate MDA’s robotic arm technology.
