🌌 New study out now! Produced in close collaboration with the European Space Policy Institute (ESPI) and the European Space Agency - ESA, the study highlights global trends in space propulsion system patent filings. Propulsion is a key element in all space activities as it serves the fundamental function of producing thrust to move launchers, satellites and other assets from Earth to space or within space. #Patenting activity in this field has boomed over the last 20 years. But who are the key players propelling us forward? Click to find out 👉 epo.org/insight-propulsion #PatentInsights #SpaceTech #TechTrends #PatentingTrends

Neutron Star Systems shaping the EU Research & Innovation Week in Brussels on 19th and 20th March 2024. Our CEO, Manuel La Rosa Betancourt, is looking forward to providing updates and exchange with consortium partners from MagnetoHydrodynamic Enhanced Entry Systems for Space Transportation and #supremetech projects. Neutron Star Systems is promoting three consortia projects to be submitted under the topic: addressing major problems such as: Solar Weather Forecasting Mission (STORM), First scalable, multimode, multi domain smart spacecraft platform for multi-orbit space-based situational awareness, (HYPERION), and the transition project MEESST-X aimed to tackled with the problem of safe re-entry for European missions. Tomorrow, we are going to pitch at the EIC Pathfinder Challenges Info Day our two new projects, STORM and HYPERION. We are looking forward to informing everyone about these exciting projects! We hope to inspire other European actors to inspire us in these disruptive and challenging projects aimed to strength resiliency of European Space Assets. Let's connect!

🚀 Exciting times ahead in the realm of in-space transportation! Portal Space Systems, led by propulsion expert Jeff Thornberg, is paving the way for a new era of ultra-mobile spacecraft technology with their Supernova satellite bus. 🔮 Prediction: The advent of the Supernova satellite bus may revolutionize the way we perceive space missions, enabling faster and more efficient transfers between different orbits, leading to increased opportunities for exploration and research. 🌌 With maneuverability becoming a service, we can look forward to enhanced capabilities for satellite deployment, maintenance, and repositioning in ways we've never seen before. 🛰️ This innovation has the potential to lower costs, reduce mission timelines, and unlock new possibilities for commercial and scientific endeavors in space. ✨ As we witness this exciting development unfold, the future of space exploration is indeed looking brighter than ever before! #SpaceTech #Innovation #PortalSpaceSystems

Aerojet Rocketdyne advances space maneuver with new propulsion tech, Los Angeles CA (SPX) Apr 16, 2024 From the early days of space exploration, objects in orbit have followed the predictable trajectories described by Johannes Kepler's laws. These paths, while historically reliable, no longer meet the strategic demands of today's complex and contested Space Area of Operations (AOR). The need for agility and unpredictability in satellite movements has become paramount as space becomes a more conte, : Los

🛰 Current estimates indicate that more than 1 million pieces of space debris larger than 1 cm are orbiting Earth. With projections of around 50.000 additional satellites set to be launched in the next decade, the likelihood of space debris damaging space infrastructure and posing a threat to astronomical research is increasing. The session "Uniting technical and political approaches towards a global sustainable use of outer space through Space Traffic Management" saw representatives of the #EU, #ESA, the #UnitedNations and the industry discuss approaches and international initiatives to address the increasing congestion of space. #EuropeanSpaceConf #STM

This is quite interesting. More than 35 satellite constellations launched in 2023 their first prototypes. How busy will LEO get in 2025/25? Space agencies & Space Law is still struggling to get mass adoption & consensus with methodology for cradle to grave on Satellites. #satellite #nasa #spacex #spacelaw #lowearthorbit #WEPS

Title: SPACE MISSIONS ANALYSIS Tool: POWER BI Data Source: QUANTUM ANALYTICS Jonathan Osagie Quantum Analytics NG OVERVIEW: As humanity reaches for the stars, space missions symbolize our collective quest for knowledge and the spirit of exploration. I am thrilled to share with you a comprehensive analysis of space missions that captures the ambitions, challenges, and triumphs of our extraterrestrial endeavors. This analysis offers a unique perspective on the evolution of space exploration, from the pioneering days of satellite launches to the contemporary era of commercial spaceflight and interplanetary missions. By examining the data, we uncover the strategic, technological, and economic factors that drive the success of these missions and how they have expanded our understanding of the universe. The insights from this research are not just about the milestones achieved but also about the collaborative efforts that underpin the space industry. They highlight the importance of international cooperation, the role of private enterprise, and the relentless pursuit of scientific advancement. I invite you to delve into this analysis with me and engage in a conversation about the future of space exploration. Your perspectives on how these findings might influence policy, investment, and innovation in the space sector are invaluable. #SpaceMissions #SpaceExploration #Aerospace #DataAnalysis
