Mission-Critical Capabilities

Each module of the Lunar Pure system plays a vital role in ensuring ultra-pure water delivery in the harsh lunar environment. From precision distillation to autonomous fault recovery, here’s what makes us mission-ready.

Contact Us

Pure H₂O

System is capable extracting pure H20 (99.6% purity) at 2.9L/hr from a regolith mixture of eight compounds found in the Shackleton Crater of lunar South Pole.

Engineered for Lunar Extremes

System shielded against radiation, and harsh lunar conditions (0 kpa, and temperature fluctuations).”

Learn More

Fractional Distillation

Separates water from volatiles by controlling temperature and pressure gradients across nine stages.

Learn More

Real-Time Quality Monitoring

Conductivity and pH sensors constantly monitor water quality, triggering automatic failover if thresholds are exceeded.

Learn More

Redundant Dual-Tower System

Ensures operational continuity through a modular A/B filtration system. Swap or reroute without interrupting production.

Why
Lunar Pure?

Lunar Pure delivers reliable, autonomous water purification designed specifically for the Moon.

Our system combines advanced fractional distillation, smart sensor monitoring, and rugged, space-ready engineering to support human life and fuel lunar exploration—drop by drop.

Why Luminate

Lunar Deployment-Ready Design

Mass and dimensions optimized for SpaceX Starship payload. Designed for 6G launch, 2G lateral shock, and compact stowage.

Why Luminate

Solar & Thermal Power Compatibility

Operates at 6.0 kW and is compatible with both solar panel arrays and nuclear thermal power units.

Why Luminate

ISRU-First Architecture

Interfaces directly with upstream regolith heating and downstream hydrogen/oxygen storage units, making it ISRU-integrated out of the box.

About Lunar Pure

Founded in 2022 by a team of engineers and space systems experts

Lunar Pure was created to solve one of the Moon’s most pressing challenges: access to clean, usable water. Our team combines mechanical engineering, chemical simulation, and autonomous systems design to deliver a water purification unit purpose-built for lunar environments.

We develop smart, modular systems that convert volatile-rich lunar ice into ultra-pure water—safely, autonomously, and at scale. With roots in capstone research and now advancing toward flight readiness, Lunar Pure is positioned to power the next era of sustainable space exploration.
