Are you referring to the DARPA program for refurbishing satellites in orbit with MEVs, the MEV-1 (mission extension vehicle) to fix satellites. If so I read an extensive article about them in the Air and Space August 2020 issue.  That program could eventually same billions of dollar extending the life of satellites and other spacecraft.

They are not the only ones doing this. Also, the startup Orbit Fab promised to launch the first gas station next year. Many other private companies have projects for service satellites or space tugs that can perform this function as well.
