The technology pipelines are funded. The response treasuries are not.

Proven Capability. Missing Infrastructure.

Proven mechanisms exist for every risk category. None have been applied to space-origin threats.

The technology pipeline is active.

In September 2022, NASA’s DART mission successfully altered the orbit of asteroid Dimorphos. The technical ecosystem for planetary defense is operational and growing.

Deflection: ProvenDART altered Dimorphos’s orbit by 33 minutes 25× the minimum for success.

Why This Matters

Deflection missions require 3–10 years of lead time. Pre-positioned funding isn’t a preference — it’s physics.

The Solution

Building the Financial Architecture

Not inventing new mechanisms. Extending proven ones to all space-origin threats.

01

The DSR Bank

Multilateral institution for pooled space-risk defense capital. GDP-weighted contributions fund asteroid deflection, debris removal, and grid hardening — three threats, one treasury.

Modeled on GEF, GFDRR
Read proposal
02

Space Risk Bonds

Capital markets instruments structured for each threat profile: deflection-timeline bonds for asteroid risk, removal-capacity bonds for debris mitigation, and resilience-linked bonds for grid infrastructure.

Mechanism: World Bank Cat Bonds

03

Global Governance

Transparent framework with scientific oversight spanning COPUOS, ITU, and national grid authorities — coordinating response across orbital and terrestrial domains.

Compatible with COPUOS, ITU norms
