Wireless Power Transmission
Traditional power cables are limited by distance, terrain, and infrastructure, making them expensive and difficult to install, especially in remote or challenging environments. They are prone to wear and tear, requiring constant maintenance and posing risks of power outages and damage. Wireless power transmission, on the other hand, eliminates the need for physical connections, delivering energy seamlessly across vast distances—whether from ground stations or satellites—without the constraints of cables. This approach reduces costs, increases reliability, and provides access to energy in places where cables simply cannot reach, revolutionizing how we power the world.
Looking ahead, wireless power transmission will be key to powering the next era of space exploration. It can enable sustainable energy for satellites, create a dependable power grid for lunar bases, and provide continuous energy to rovers and landers on the Moon. As we extend our reach to Mars, this technology could one day deliver power to the Red Planet, supporting future colonies and exploration missions. Wireless power opens the door to limitless possibilities, both on Earth and beyond.

Matyáš Dvořák
Founder & CEO
Matyáš got his undergraduate degree in Physics from Sorbonne Université and is now pursuing his Master’s course in Optics and Photonics at Imperial College London. He interned at SpaceChain and HiLASE, where he worked in the Advanced Laser Development team on a 2.1-micron thin-disk laser. He also collaborated with the Czech Technical University on a project for the European Space Agency, analysing data from a hyperspectral camera. His core values are honesty, excellence, and fairness, and he brings these attributes to the everyday decision-making at Celestia.
Pavel Škoda
Lead Hardware Engineer
Pavel got his PhD in Laser and Optical Engineering from the Czech Technical University, and then went on to pursue his career in optics and electronics at institutions including ELI Beamlines, CESNET, and Valeo. Most recently, he worked as an optical and electrical consultant, building a wide variety of systems such as drones and their power distribution boards, laser autocollimators, and automatic drink dispenser machines. He is joining Celestia to lead the development of the laser transmitter and receiver, leveraging his more than 20 years of experience.
Shresth Shrivastava
Lead Software Engineer
Shresth got his integrated Master’s in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Manchester and is now completing his MSc in Computing at Imperial College London. He completed a year long industrial placement at BAE Systems, where he worked as a Data Scientist and developed a machine learning models for satellite image analysis and EM Aircraft Testing. He also worked as a Design and Development Engineer at Stars Edge, creating advanced simulations for VLEO satellite electric propulsion systems. He is joining Celestia to lead the development of its software platform, applying his expertise in computer vision technology and communication protocols to enable autonomous wireless power delivery.
