City Labs

Miami, FL - July 7, 2026 - City Labs today announced that its BOHR (Betavoltaic Orbital High-Reliability) satellite, the world's first commercial nuclear-powered satellite and first nuclear CubeSat, has been officially manifested aboard SpaceX Transporter

Miami, FL May 18, 2026 - City Labs, the leader in tritium nuclear micropower technology, today announced it has been awarded a $1.5 million contract by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) under the Rads to Watts (R2W) program. The fundin

Distributed sensor networks are becoming a core component of lunar surface architecture-deployed across wide areas to monitor seismic activity, radiation levels, thermal conditions, and surface interactions. The sensing technologies themselves are mature.

City Labs researchers will present three technical talks at the American Nuclear Society's Nuclear and Emerging Technologies for Space (NETS) 2026 conference, taking place on April 27 in Dayton, Ohio. ANS NETS is one of the leading forums for advancing nu

Power selection is one of the most consequential design decisions in deep-sea systems. Unlike terrestrial or short-duration platforms, subsea assets are often deployed for months or years at a time in environments where retrieval is costly, time-consuming

National security and defense systems increasingly operate in environments where maintenance access is limited, replacement is impractical, and failure is not an option. As mission timelines extend and deployment conditions become more demanding, power re

In the world of secure communications and cryptographic systems, protecting the encryption keys themselves is just as important as the cryptographic algorithms that use them. Whether in defense, aerospace, or high-security commercial applications, continu

Medical-device developers are increasingly evaluating long-life "nuclear batteries" as an alternative to traditional lithium chemistries-especially for implants that need decades of continuous power. These devices use low-energy radioactive isotopes to ge

Modern oilfield operations depend on electronics that must function reliably in some of the harshest conditions on Earth. Downhole sensors, measurement-while-drilling (MWD) tools, logging-while-drilling (LWD) systems, and monitoring equipment are routinel

For many organizations deploying large IoT networks, maintenance-not hardware-is the true driver of cost. Replacing or servicing batteries consumes time, requires skilled labor, and often involves sending technicians into remote, hazardous, or high-securi
