Oracle is involved in the space industry through several avenues. Firstly, Oracle provides cloud infrastructure and software solutions, such as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, that are utilized by space exploration engineering companies like a.i. solutions for complex tasks like trajectory analysis and design for missions like NASA's Deep Space Gateway. Secondly, Oracle provides electronic components and supply chain management to the aerospace industry. Finally, an Air Force Research Laboratory satellite called Oracle is designed for space object detection and tracking in cislunar space, with Advanced Space as the prime contractor.

In November, AFRL awarded a $72,000,000 contract to Advanced Space to develop the Oracle spacecraft.
AFRL intends Oracle to demonstrate tracking of debris, rocket bodies, and other cislunar objects that currently are not monitored and to provide position updates on spacecraft operating near the Moon or other regions that are difficult to observe from Earth.
On 2023-09-15, AFRL set an anticipated 2026 delivery and a 2027 launch for the Oracle experiment.
The deep-space experiment is led by the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Space Vehicles Directorate and was previously known as the Cislunar Highway Patrol System (CHPS) before being renamed Oracle.
Advanced Space selected the General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems ESPA-Grande class satellite bus as the platform for Oracle.
AFRL awarded Advanced Space a $72,000,000 contract in November to develop a spacecraft for the Oracle mission.
The 18 contractors selected for the IDIQ contract are Agility Consulting; August Schell Enterprises; Avantus Federal; BAE Systems; Bluestaq; C3 AI; Enlighten IT Consulting; Ernst & Young; Kinecta DB; MAGS DS CORP; Map Large; Meroxa.io; NT Concepts; Oracle America; Palantir USG; Raft; Royce Geospatial Consultants; and World Wide Technology.
