Mynaric, trading as MYNA, manufactures laser communication terminals enabling high-bandwidth optical inter-satellite links and satellite-to-ground data transfer for government and commercial constellations.
ACQUIREDMynaric AG is a Munich-based developer and manufacturer of optical laser communication terminals, founded in 2009 as a spin-off of the German Aerospace Center (DLR). It has been a subsidiary of Rocket Lab since Rocket Lab completed its acquisition on 14 April 2026.
Mynaric was spun out of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and has become a leading producer of laser communication terminals. The company supplies hardware for programs including the Space Development Agency Transport Layer and commercial mega-constellations. Mynaric's CONDOR series terminals support Gbps-class optical links between satellites.

Not scored The Space Score is a 0 to 1000 snapshot of a space company's size and activity, relative to the other companies we track. It combines size (headcount, market value and revenue, 30%), U.S. federal space contracts (20%), equity raised (15%), momentum (15%) and, for launch companies, orbital launches (20%), so it leans heavily on size. It is descriptive: not a forecast, a rating or investment advice.
This company is not in the Space Score roster. Only company profiles with an active or pre-revenue status are scored.
