## Common questions

### What is DeepSpace-2?

AstroForge's third demonstration spacecraft (also known as Vestri), a 200-kg spacecraft designed to rendezvous with and land on a metallic near-Earth asteroid to characterize its composition and quantify extractable precious metals. Planned to launch as a rideshare on Intuitive Machines' IM-3 mission in the second half of 2026.

### How much does DeepSpace-2 cost?

DeepSpace-2's price is not publicly disclosed. DEPLOY has no verified price on record for DeepSpace-2 from AstroForge. Physical-AI systems like this are often sold through enterprise contracts or operated as a service rather than at a public list price; check the manufacturer for the latest.

### Is DeepSpace-2 actually deployed in the real world?

DeepSpace-2 is at the prototype stage: it exists, but DEPLOY has no verified real-world deployment on record. Manufacturer capability claims should be read as claims pending independent verification.

### Who makes DeepSpace-2?

DeepSpace-2 is made by AstroForge, based in Huntington Beach, California, USA, founded in 2022.

### Can you buy DeepSpace-2?

DeepSpace-2 is at prototype stage and is not yet available for sale.

### What are alternatives to DeepSpace-2?
