About Galactic Resource Utilization Space, Inc. (GRU Space)
GRU builds off-planet habitats using in-situ resource utilization technology, turning local material into building material. Our first habitat will be a hotel on the Moon for space tourists, aiming to open 2032.
In 2029, our demo mission will turn lunar regolith into bricks and demonstrate our modular pressurized habitat system. A second mission will begin laying the hotel’s foundation in a lunar cave. A third mission will open the first lunar hotel.
We don’t stop at Moon hotels. GRU’s long-term plan:
- Build the first hotel on the Moon. GRU solves off‑world surface habitation.
- Build America’s first Moon base: roads, mass drivers, warehouses, and physical infrastructure.
- Repeat on Mars and build the first cities there.
- Own property on the Moon and Mars as these economies grow.
- Reinvest profits into resource utilization systems on the Moon, Mars, asteroids, and beyond—reaching our final form: Galactic Resource Utilization.
GRU Space is backed by investors in SpaceX + Anduril, and is part of Nvidia’s Inception program.
