Independent frontier operations
Astra Exploration
Opportunity exists beyond the boundaries of charted space. We survey it, secure it, recover it, and keep it supplied.
Mission profiles
One organization.
Every frontier.
AEX is a Jack of All Trades. Our crews go where conventional operations stop, pairing the right people and ships with whatever the frontier demands.

Mining & Acquisition
Acquire the resources that keep the frontier moving.

AEX publicly operates within recognized interstellar law. When questions arise about the actions of our crews, however, we prefer to handle our own affairs internally.
