Ramon.Space UK to Develop Onboard Communication Processors🛰️ Ramon.Space a leader in space-resilient computing, is set to develop next-gen digital onboard processors for large-scale communication constellations. Funded by the UK Space Agency, this initiative will push the boundaries of satellite communications with Ramon.Space’s NuComm processor, delivering high-capacity, low-power solutions for LEO constellations. Speaking about the project, Dr. Craig Brown, Director of Investment at the UK Space Agency, said: “The UK is a global leader in satellite communications and we’re accelerating the development of new services in low Earth orbit by backing innovative technologies like these advanced computing systems from Ramon Space.” 🔎Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eSUVVy9V #SpaceNews #SatelliteCommunications #LEO #UKSpace #RamonSpace #DigitalPayloads #SpaceTech #Innovation

SpaceTech Predictions 2024 Update - Prediction 7 🚀 Return to Earth capabilities will start to unlock the next phase of the space sector’s growth. As low-cost launches have reshaped the Space sector over the last decade, we anticipate that the advent of low-cost, frequent return-to-Earth capabilities will have a similar impact over the next decade. We predict that 2024 will see successful maiden missions for several pioneering companies that are developing their capabilities for returning material from Space.

💡 Investor insights: Quentin discusses European space tech and growing from lab to market with The Scenarionist. 🚀 The space tech industry has taken off in recent years – investors are particularly excited by the emerging category of ‘in-space economy’…from repurposing satellites to debris removal and space tourism. Before approaching VC’s, consider where you’re ready to transition from science to engineering. “VCs aren’t the most efficient capital to finance research…there are grants for this. Consider: are we beyond the science, do we know it’s going to work and are entering the engineering phase where we’re making a product.” 🛰️ Hardware takes time to scale – focus on showing the maturity of the technology and team quality. “Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) is a crucial indicator…also where you come from and what sets you apart of the 0.01% of people in the world qualified to build this right now." 🎙️ You can listen to the interview with Nicola Marchese here: https://lnkd.in/eFuMTDmT

Congratulations to all! SpaceWERX, in partnership with Space Safari, has announced the 19 awardees of the 2023 SpaceWERX Tactically Responsive Space Challenge! The TacRS Challenge will generate cutting-edge ideas and state-of-the-art capabilities to enable the United States Space Force to more rapidly and flexibly respond to emerging on-orbit threats by 2026. “The TacRS Challenge SBIR Direct to Phase II contracts are going to propel the U.S. Space Force toward future responsive and dynamic space operations,” said Col Erik Stockham, USSF Space Systems Command (SSC/SZA). “The future of space power requires capabilities that can respond to adversary action on tactical timelines. These innovative small businesses are developing groundbreaking approaches to employ space capabilities when and where it counts.” “The TacRS SpaceWERX Challenge shows how impactful the collaboration with our mission owners can be. We’re thrilled to have supported the TacRS program team on what is clearly going to be an impressive cohort of companies and technologies.” said Lt. Col. Vinny Pande, Chief of SpaceWERX Ventures. 232 companies submitted 302 proposals in response to the TacRS Open Innovation Challenge in Aug., a SBIR solicitation open to innovators from industry, academia, and government with solutions to solve identified problems. SpaceWERX will award up to $1.7M to each of the below SBIR Phase II companies, totaling $32.3M with a 15-month period-of-performance. ◾ Agile Space Industries, Inc. ◾ Apex Technology, Inc. ◾ Argo Space Corp. ◾ Circle Optics, Inc. ◾ Gravitics Inc, Inc. ◾ Impulse Space, Inc.

Great report on the trillion dollar opportunity New Space offers. Investors have been getting cold feet as they move to the next shiny thing and notice that many space companies that went public not only failed to increase their valuation but actually saw valuations sliced by 50 and even 80%! That said, space is still an incredible investment. It is not a get rich quick industry. It takes time, failure is the norm, and it can take more than a few attempts to get things right. But in the next 10 years the space industry will mint its fair share of millionaires.
