Think Orbital Raises Seed. Space infrastructure startup ThinkOrbital has closed their Seed Round, led by TFX Capital. The funding will accelerate development of the company’s Space‑to‑Space X‑ray imaging system — designed to inspect spacecraft in orbit and determine adversary capabilities, intent, and damage — along with in‑space construction capabilities for orbital infrastructure at a scale that simply cannot be deployed from the ground. ThinkOrbital’s Space‑to‑Space X‑ray system is scheduled to fly on demonstration missions in March and October 2026.
