Collaborations
Chosen by NASA and collaborating with the next generation of visionaries, with our space-grade lubricants, we’re helping to move space exploration forward.
Visionary collaborations since the 1960s
We have worked in space for over 60 years. Since NASA landed humans on the moon in 1969, space has opened up to new players including, the next generation of scientists, engineers and academic institutions. We collaborate with experts across the entire space operation - from Mission Control to lubricating engines on the ground.
Mars
Chosen by NASA
Our products are in the veins and components of NASA’s Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover and 2012 Curiosity Rover, which must operate in Mars’ extreme environment where in summer it is 20°C at the equator and -153°C at the poles. Both Rovers are still going strong today.
Collaborating with the brightest minds in the industry
Thousands of people play their part in space exploration across a vast range of disciplines and technologies. Castrol is leading the way in space-grade lubricants, working with governments, academics, start-ups, entrepreneurs and visionaries to share our expertise.
