In an innovative move to enhance satellite management, Denmark’s GomSpace has formed a strategic partnership with Portugal’s Neuraspace. This collaboration integrates Neuraspace’s cutting-edge AI-based space traffic management within GomSpace’s sophisticated HOOP satellite operations platform. As stated in Satellite Evolution, this synergy promises improved safety and cost-effectiveness for GomSpace customers.
Automation Meets Space Traffic Management
GomSpace’s HOOP is not just a satellite operations platform; it’s a revolution in how we approach space management. Designed for automation, scalability, and flexibility, HOOP allows operators to expand from individual satellites to global constellations effortlessly. Now, with the integration of Neuraspace’s AI-driven traffic management, operators can directly monitor their assets, from pre-launch rocket screening to real-time in-orbit tracking.
Cost Efficiency and Enhanced Safety
The integration of Neuraspace’s space traffic management system provides automated conjunction alerts, comprehensive collision analyses, and proactive manoeuvre suggestions. These features significantly reduce the time and effort required for human conjunction screening, cutting costs and minimizing potential downtimes. By accurately predicting necessary manoeuvres, the system also conserves fuel, a critical resource in space operations.
Leaders in Space Traffic Solutions
Highlighting the partnership’s significance, GomSpace CEO Carsten Drachmann emphasized the necessity of tracking objects, analyzing movements, and providing accurate collision alerts. With the increasing risk from debris and growing orbital traffic, such technological integration is not just beneficial but crucial.
Neuraspace CEO Chiara Manfletti echoed this sentiment, recognizing it as a pivotal step in Neuraspace’s industry expansion. Their AI and machine learning-based STM platform is a game-changer for spacecraft owners, and its alignment with GomSpace’s HOOP opens up new commercial opportunities.
Commitment to Sustainable Spaceflight
This collaboration aligns with the agenda of the European Space Agency’s Zero Debris Charter, signed by both parties. Their commitment to sustainable spaceflight activities before 2030 highlights an industry-wide focus on preserving our orbital environment.
As GomSpace and Neuraspace lead the charge in integrating advanced technologies, the future of satellite operations shines brighter, promising safer, more efficient, and sustainable space missions.
