Basalt
ActiveConstellations as a Service
About
Basalt is building self-flying satellite constellations for enterprise customers, no prior aerospace experience or expertise needed! Powered by our spacecraft OS, Basalt provides a seamless experience, enabling users to fly and stream data from their own tailored satellite constellation from an app on their phones or laptops. The company is founded by Max Bhatti and Alex Choi, lead engineers at the MIT CubeSat program. Previously, the duo worked as systems engineers at SpaceX, and the UK Ministry of Defense. Basalt Tech recently received its seed investment as part of the Y Combinator W24 batch, and is currently in technical development.
Founders
Maximillian Bhatti· FounderCEO & Co-Founder of Basalt Tech // I was working at Caltech’s fusion lab when I was hired out of highschool by my co-founder Alex. We would spend the next year working together at MIT AeroAstro, and become great friends in the process. Since then, I’ve spent stints at The Aerospace Corporation and SpaceX working on distributed space systems and the American moon landing. Most recently, I dropped out to build Basalt Tech with Alex. My hobbies include hiking and buying infinite whiteboards.
