True Anomaly
FeaturedSpace superiority through advanced spacecraft and AI.
Founded in 2022 by Cole Brauer, True Anomaly is one of the most well-funded and talked-about space defense startups in the United States. The company builds autonomous spacecraft called Jackal vehicles that can maneuver close to other objects in orbit for monitoring, inspection, and potential threat response, combined with its Mosaic software platform that provides real-time space domain awareness for the US Space Force and Department of Defense. On May 4, 2026, True Anomaly raised a $600 million Series D round, one of the largest ever for a space defense startup, reflecting the US government's surging investment in space superiority capabilities as competition in orbit intensifies globally.
