.space
generic
.space is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) open to anyone, with no specific eligibility requirements. It is operated by Radix Technologies Inc., a domain registry provider based in the Cayman Islands. While the name suggests space exploration or astronomy, the domain is used broadly for personal sites, startups, and creative projects. Registration is handled through accredited registrars, and the WHOIS server is whois.nic.space. The domain was first delegated in May 2014 to DotSpace Inc., then transferred to Radix FZC in 2021, and later to Radix Technologies Inc. in 2024. It remains a popular choice for those wanting a short, memorable web address.
History
