MMA Space

MMA Space, founded in 2002 and currently located in Broomfield, Colorado, specializes in the design and manufacture of deployable structures and mechanisms for the space industry. The company focuses on robust and reliable technology solutions, with a core product line centered around deployable booms, structures, and solar arrays. MMA Space recently launched the FlexArray solar array system, specifically targeting the SmallSat class, and is actively developing the next-generation dragNET de-orbit and solar sail system.

Key to MMA Space’s capabilities is the development of lightweight, compact, and reliable deployment mechanisms. This is evidenced by their delivery of a crossed dipole deployable antenna and what is reported as the largest CubeSat solar array ever, both for a Department of Defense mission. The company’s recent relocation to a larger, state-of-the-art facility at the Baseline Innovation Center demonstrates a commitment to enhancing these core capabilities and supporting increased production.

MMA Space positions itself as a provider of critical components for satellite and spacecraft missions, with a focus on affordability and reliability. Their products address key mission needs such as power generation (solar arrays) and end-of-life de-orbit solutions, catering to both commercial and government customers. The company actively engages with the space industry through conference participation, including events like AIAA SciTech, the SmallSat Symposium, Satellite, and the Space Symposium.
