AstroTech Corporation today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a strategic initiative focused on lunar resource development, autonomous lunar industrial infrastructure, and future Moon-based advanced computing and semiconductor manufacturing opportunities.
The purpose of this initiative is to prepare AstroTech to evaluate emerging opportunities associated with NASA’s Artemis program, the Commercial Lunar Payload Services (“CLPS”) program, and next-generation commercial lunar transportation systems.
Astrotech’s initiative is expected to focus on four strategic lunar resource and infrastructure categories:
- Silicon and ultra-pure silicon-28 (“Si-28”) for advanced semiconductor and quantum computing applications
- Helium-3 (“3He”) for potential quantum cooling and cryogenic infrastructure applications
- Platinum group metals (“PGMs”) for potential terrestrial industrial applications
- Water ice for potential propellant production and life-support infrastructure

Strategic focus on lunar-based quantum computing infrastructure
As part of the initiative, AstroTech intends to evaluate and develop infrastructure technologies that can support future semiconductor processing, advanced computing systems, and quantum computing manufacturing operations on the lunar surface.
Astrotech believes that the convergence of abundant solar energy, extreme lunar thermal conditions, low gravity, autonomous robotics and access to strategic lunar materials such as Si-28 and 3He could ultimately make the Moon an attractive long-term platform for advanced computational infrastructure and next-generation quantum manufacturing systems.
AstroTech expects to evaluate infrastructure concepts that support the following:
- Lunar silicon purification and isotope processing
- Semiconductor Wafer Production
- AI and high-performance computing infrastructure
- Ultra-low-temperature quantum cooling system
- Future quantum computing manufacturing capabilities using lunar-derived silicon-28
“Quantum computing, artificial intelligence and advanced semiconductor manufacturing are increasingly becoming strategic national security and economic priorities,” said Tom Pickens, President and CEO of AstroTech Corporation. “We believe that lunar regolith can provide unique long-term value from mining, quantum computing solutions, and autonomous manufacturing infrastructure. This board-approved initiative provides AstroTech a strategic framework to evaluate technologies, partnerships, and mission architectures that can support the development of a future lunar industrial economy.”
