About Lunar Exploration

Lunar Exploration Ltd is a European space-tech company developing advanced geospatial intelligence solutions for planetary bodies. The company provides high-resolution lunar mapping, resource identification, and mission-planning analytics to space agencies, lander and rover companies, mining and ISRU operators, infrastructure providers, and scientific institutions.

The return to the Moon has begun, but today’s lunar data is fragmented, outdated, and optimised for scientific analysis—not for commercial missions,” said Zsolt Szemerszky, CEO of Lunar Exploration Ltd. “Our mission is to provide precise, mission-ready intelligence that lowers risk, accelerates development, and enables the next generation of lunar operations, from landers and rovers to resource extraction and infrastructure planning.

With it headquarter in Malta, the team brings together expertise in planetary science, data engineering, physics, space mission design, and advanced analytics. The company’s mission is to build the world’s most advanced digital twin of the Moon and serve as the data backbone of the emerging lunar economy.

A Market at the Dawn of Expansion

Independent studies forecast that the lunar mapping and data services market will exceed $6B by 2033, while the broader lunar economy is projected to surpass €140B by 2040.

Reliable surface intelligence is the foundation of every lunar mission,” explains Zsolt Szemerszky, the CEO of Lunar Exploration Ltd. “Whether you are landing on the Moon, searching for water ice, deploying a rover, or exploring Helium-3 for fusion applications, everything begins with accurate, commercial-grade geospatial data.

Our Mission

To build the world’s most advanced planetary geospatial intelligence platform.

A New Intelligence Layer for Lunar Missions

Lunar Exploration’s platform combines a wide range of mission datasets—including imagery, altimetry, spectroscopy, radar, neutron and gamma signatures, thermal models, and topographical data—into a harmonised 3D lunar environment.
