## Key takeaways

- Eclipse Space is using Nullspace as the simulation engine inside its AI-driven antenna design workflow, with software agents running simulations while RF engineers make decisions.
- Eclipse will use Nullspace's new consumption-based licensing model, which launches publicly early next year, checking out a license per simulation and paying only for time used.
- Nullspace CEO Dr. Masha Petrova said the software solves the governing equations of RF physics and is built to be run by AI agents in the cloud or on premises.
- Eclipse Space was founded by engineers who built and scaled Starlink and is headquartered in Redmond, Washington.

[Nullspace](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/00005a7/nullspace-inc), Inc. announced a partnership with Eclipse Space on November 2, 2026, under which Eclipse uses Nullspace's electromagnetic simulation software as the engine inside its AI-driven satellite antenna design workflow. [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/nullspace-simulation-powers-eclipse-spaces-ai-driven-satellite-antenna-design-302925805.html) published the announcement.

## How Eclipse Space Runs Antenna Simulations

In Eclipse's workflow, software agents generate a design, prepare it for simulation, run it in Nullspace, read the results and decide what to change next, day and night, while Eclipse's radio frequency engineers make the decisions. Eclipse can run many simulations in parallel, and a single RF expert can direct dozens of design explorations at once. Nullspace solves the governing equations of electromagnetics directly, so the AI decides what to try and a full-fidelity simulation answers whether a design works.

"Nullspace solves the governing equations of RF physics," said Dr. Masha Petrova, CEO of Nullspace. "Yet, it has been built for the age of AI." Petrova said the software is designed to be run by AI agents, deployable in the cloud and on premises, and that the new consumption model supports fast design cycles.

Eclipse is also using Nullspace's new consumption-based licensing model, which launches publicly early next year. Instead of buying fixed seats, Eclipse's agents check out a license when a simulation needs one and release it when they finish, so Eclipse pays only for the simulation time it uses.

"Nullspace lets our engineers explore far more antenna designs in far less time while staying in charge of every decision that matters," said Derek Huerta, CEO of Eclipse Space. Huerta said customers are building networks they depend on for next-generation communications, orbital data centers and national security.

[Eclipse Space](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/02lz31t/eclipse-space) was founded by the engineers who built and scaled Starlink and delivers turnkey constellation infrastructure, including satellites, payloads, ground segment, launch and operations, to nations and enterprises. The company is headquartered in Redmond, Washington. In September 2026, Eclipse unveiled three satellite platforms, CitraSat, SliceSat and SurgeSat, for customer-owned constellations, [Business Wire Blog](https://akta.pro/news-signals) reported.

## Nullspace's Simulation and Funding Record

Nullspace released Nullspace Prep & EM 2025 R1 in January 2026, introducing AI-powered CAD cleanup described as 8x faster prep, Fast Adaptive Frequency Sweeps delivering up to 100x speedup, and Passive Circuit Loads for full-wave EM simulation with lumped impedance elements, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data). The same records show Nullspace closed a $2.5 million seed round in August 2025 led by Fathom Fund with Golden Seeds LLC and strategic angel investors, and that its core technology was developed and validated for over 10 years through IERUS Technologies before spin-off.

## When the Licensing Model Opens

Nullspace's consumption-based licensing model launches publicly early next year, the company said. Eclipse is already using the model in its antenna design workflow.
