Interlune raises $5M as it holds nearly $500M in government and industry purchase orders for lunar helium-3; extraction not expected until 2030
Seattle startup Interlune raised an additional $5 million to pursue lunar helium-3 mining, while holding nearly $500 million in purchase orders from the US Air Force, DOE, and quantum computing firms; the company says first extraction won't occur before 2030.
Interlune raises $5M SAFE to fund lunar infrastructure and helium-3 mining ahead of priced round
Seattle-based Interlune raised $5 million via a SAFE to fund development of lunar infrastructure and mining technologies, marking a second $5M SAFE after an earlier round this year. The startup, founded in 2020 and led by CEO Rob Meyerson, is expanding from helium-3 extraction into space infrastructure and survival services and has partnerships such as an expanded deal with Vermeer for lunar construction tools.
Interlune demonstrates Cold Capture to extract 99% pure helium-3 from industrial helium, aims to scale for lunar mining
Seattle startup Interlune says it produced 99% pure helium-3 from industrial-grade helium using a cryogenic distillation process called Cold Capture, a technique it plans to scale for lunar extraction. The company argues helium-3’s rarity and suitability for quantum computing, detectors and future fusion makes lunar-sourced supply potentially profitable, and demonstrated the process at small scale in early 2025.
