What a fantastic morning! 🚀 The Startical #IOD-1 satellite successfully launched aboard SpaceX #Transporter-13 earlier today, and we had the pleasure of experiencing this moment together at GomSpace HQ in Aalborg. From the early morning gathering over breakfast to the final countdown, the excitement was shared across locations with a live call to the Startical team in Madrid. We also had danish TV2 Nord on-site capturing the atmosphere and the liftoff! Moments like these highlight the passion, dedication, and teamwork that drive us every day. 👏🏻 Congratulations to our customer, Startical, and their partners ENAIRE and Indra!  We can’t wait to see IOD-1 in action, paving the way for a safer and more efficient air traffic management system from space. We’re proud to be part of a team that takes innovation to new heights! #StarticalIOD1 #LaunchDay #Teamwork #WeAreGomSpace

📢 Today, the “IOD-1” satellite built by GomSpace for Startical has been launched into space from California on SpaceX Falcon 9, Transporter-13 and start its commissioning and demonstration activities. With the satellite, Startical is taking its first steps in space towards their vision of deploying a #global #constellation of small satellites to provide continuous real-time communication with aircraft over oceanic or unpopulated areas where no such services are in operation today. This includes areas such as e.g. the Atlantic Ocean and the Arctics. “We are super excited to see IOD-1 go into space today! And we thank GomSpace for their dedication and constructive collaboration to reach this goal. We look forward to continuing our close collaboration during the test and demonstration activities,” said Juan Enrique Gonzalez Laguna, General Manager of Startical.

Countdown to the #IOD-1 Launch! At GomSpace, we’re thrilled to announce that the #IOD-1 satellite is set to launch as part of the SpaceX Transporter-13 rideshare mission on March 14 at 23:39 PDT / March 15 at 06:39 UTC / 07:39 CET. Built for our customer Startical, IOD-1 will play a crucial role in enhancing real-time VHF voice and data communication for aircraft flying over remote and oceanic regions. This groundbreaking demonstrator is part of the #ECHOES project, co-funded by the European Union’s Connecting Europe Facility and supported by SESAR Joint Undertaking. This mission marks a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to support air traffic communication. From the design phase to assembly and final integration at Exolaunch, our dedicated GomSpace team has been involved every step of the way to ensure IOD-1 is fully prepared for a successful mission to support Startical project. GomSpace satellite is a customized 16U design with 2 main payloads:  - A space-based VHF voice/data payload – including a VHF antenna that is approximately 20cm when stowed – and that will extend to close to 300cm when deployed. -A space-based ADS-B payload for capturing airplane information.   The VHF payload is a fully customized design by GomSpace – and specially developed for this mission. We can't wait to see #IOD-1 in action and to contribute to a safer and more efficient air traffic management system from space. #GomSpace #SpaceX #Transporter13 #ATM #SatelliteTechnology #Innovation #Collaboration #Startical

Juventas is still on the move – Hera’s Mars flyby coming up! 🛰️ Another major milestone is just around the corner! On 12 March 2025, European Space Agency - ESA’s #Hera #mission – with the Juventas satellite, built by GomSpace – will swing by Mars for a gravity assist. This maneuver isn’t just for show – it’s a brilliant fuel-saving hack that shortens the journey to the #Didymos #asteroid system by months! But while Hera and Juventas gets a speed boost, we’ll also get some exciting new science along the way: See all the details here: ➡️ https://lnkd.in/emeUVF9B Animation credit: European Space Agency - ESA #HeraMission #JuventasMission #PlanetaryDefense #SpaceExploration #MarsFlyby #AsteroidMission #WeAreGomSpace 🚀

🚀 IOD-1 is Getting Ready for Launch! At GomSpace, we’re thrilled to see the #IOD-1 satellite getting ready for its big journey to space. Built for our customer Startical, this mission marks the first step in revolutionizing air traffic communication – bringing real-time VHF voice and data communication to aircraft flying over remote and oceanic regions. 🌊✈️ From the very first design steps to assembly and final integration at Exolaunch a few months ago, our team has been involved every step of the way, ensuring IOD-1 is ready for its mission.    We can’t wait to see IOD-1 in action and are proud to support Startical on this exciting journey. Stay tuned for the big moment! ⏱️ 📷 Photo credit (1 & 2): Exolaunch #IOD1 #Startical #SpaceInnovation #AviationSafety #GomSpace #SatelliteTechnology ECHOES Indra

This week, we had the privilege of attending the Space Collaboration Industry Seminar for NATO's Defence of the High North and Arctic Region 2025 in Helsinki, where GomSpace was represented by Lars Krogh Alminde and Emilie Marley Siemssen. It was a great opportunity to take part in important discussions with key decision-makers at the political, military, and industrial levels. We are proud to contribute our expertise in advanced satellite technology and look forward to Nordic leadership in space! 🛰️🌏 #SpaceCollaboration #NATO #HighNorth #ArcticSecurity #SatelliteTechnology #NordicLeadership #DefenseInnovation

A great opportunity for GomSpace and Lars Krogh Alminde to show how space and small satellites can support maritime activities!

GomSpace secures important radio development project with ESA 🤝 GomSpace has secured a 680,000 EUR (7.6 MSEK) contract with ESA to accelerate the development of new Ka-Band communications products to achieve full market introduction in 2026. The products will be introduced into the “NanoCom Link” family of advanced radios, which are already performing very well on the market and creates significant earnings for GomSpace. "Introducing new products is a key part of our strategy to continue growth in our product sales performance. The collaboration with ESA allows us to accelerate our roadmap implementation without increasing our cash investment in development, and we benefit from access to ESA experts in the development and qualification process.”, says Henrik Kalstrup, Vice President of GomSpace Products Business Unit.
