Definition

The term, in context

AI-assisted draft · approved dataset

The Katalyst Space LINK is an orbit-boost servicing vehicle designed to dock with an existing spacecraft in orbit and provide it with additional propulsion, raising its altitude or extending its operational orbit. Rather than replacing the client satellite, the servicer attaches externally and uses its own propulsion and guidance systems to perform the maneuver on the host spacecraft's behalf, extending the usable life of a satellite that has depleted its own fuel.
