Space USB’s Post

Press release "Preserving space & securing the long-term future of space infrastructures is today a key issue. You’ve no doubt already heard about on-orbit servicing with spacecraft capable of performing a wide range of robotic tasks, including repairs or extending the service life of satellites through refueling, and de-orbiting of space debris. On-orbit servicing is one of the new avenues being explored as a way of making space more sustainable and eco-friendly. While it’s true that extending a satellite’s life will simply add to the existing population of space debris further down the line, the lack of standardized interconnections could also hinder progress toward universal connectivity. This is where standard, multi-functional interconnections come into the picture as an effective way of accomplishing missions and connecting space modules, which is precisely the goal of the European Commission’s Space USB project, coordinated by Thales Alenia Space." read & learn more https://lnkd.in/edHaxBrg

Tomorrow I'll be speaking at the Defence iQ #additivemanufacturing for Aerospace, Defence & Space conference. Giving an update on the collective efforts to update the Aerospace Technology Institute AM roadmap, ultimately working towards how do we get more AM parts on planes and building a resilient end to end UK supply chain that can deliver this As always the line up is impressive with industry voices covering key domains. Looking forward to catching up and discussing how we can shape the industry going forward https://lnkd.in/eG6cpPSv
