Defense technology company Anduril Industries said it is buying space surveillance company ExoAnalytic Solutions. Terms of the acquisition, announced Wednesday, were not disclosed. ExoAnalytic operates about 400 ground-based optical telescopes that monitor objects in orbit and provide data to the U.S. government for space domain awareness and missile defense missions. Anduril says the acquisition is intended to strengthen its ability to integrate space-based data into defense systems. It will also significantly expand its space business, which has about 120 employees before the ExoAnalytic purchase. ExoAnalytic will be folded into Anduril's space and engineering division rather than operate as a standalone subsidiary.
