What we build
Three platforms for the three problems of every long mission.
Crews need protection from radiation, support for their health, and decisions they can trust. Each has its own Aeginis platform.
MycoShell
Habitat shielding · TRL 4
A living radiation shield that grows from local regolith into the structure of the habitat, and doubles as a water and waste filter. For the Moon, Mars and beyond.
Crew-health biology
14 products in development
Probiotics, peptides, exosome care, nutrition and Mars-dust defence, all designed to stay stable for years without refrigeration, for missions with no resupply.
Cosmion
Computational biology · in development
An evidence-led platform that reads the space-biology literature, screens strains, designs peptides and simulates missions, with an uncertainty range on every prediction.
Plus
Habitat support studies.
Ground, analog and flight studies, with modelling, that test shielding, water and waste, air, food and crew health for the habitats of the Moon and Mars.
The problem
Everything a deep-space mission needs, you have to launch from Earth.
Radiation is constant, mass is expensive, food loses vitamins, medicines expire and the microbes in and on the body change. A single Mars mission exceeds the proposed career radiation dose, and there is no resupply and no quick return home.
Space does not need a bigger payload. It needs smarter biology and better decisions.
One Mars mission delivers about 68% more than NASA's proposed career limit. Source: Curiosity RAD instrument; National Academies space radiation report.
Months of usable shelf life. Missions to Mars last years, with no resupply and no quick return home.
Moon · Mars · Jupiter
One company. Any world.
Shielding grown from local regolith, health products built to last years, and models that tell us what to test for each destination.
01 · MycoShell
A habitat that grows into its own shield.
A melanized, radiotrophic fungal strain is seeded into a lightweight scaffold that ships flat. Add water and local regolith and it grows into a rigid shell around the habitat frame. NASA-tested myco-composite cut proton radiation by more than 99% at three inches.
02 · Crew-health biology
Fourteen shelf-stable products for life beyond Earth.
Probiotics, peptides, exosome and nutrition products designed to stay stable without refrigeration and to be tested for the stresses of spaceflight.
A room-temperature probiotic built on bacterial spores, the format that kept more than a billion live organisms per capsule through a simulated 3-year Mars round trip in an independent study.
Featured products
Bone-Support Probiotic
A probiotic aimed at the gut-bone connection.

Which biology should we send, and how sure are we?
Cosmion is our computational biology platform. Every answer is cited, tested and reproducible.
Space Evidence Engine
Cited answers only, graded by study type and setting, with contradictions flagged.
Strain Intelligence
Whole-genome safety screening and metabolic modelling of every strain.
Peptide Design Studio
Structure prediction and developability checks, aligned with what can be manufactured.
Mission Simulator
Radiation and five-year storage modelling that turns into ground-test designs.
One company
Radiation, health and decisions: three problems on every mission, three platforms in one company.
Roadmap
From coupon to station module, and from evidence to closed loop.
Let's build the next shield together.
Space agencies, station builders, research institutes and sustainable-construction partners: we would like to hear from you.
