Imagine space as a busy highway where thousands of satellites and pieces of junk are zooming around. This project acts like a high-tech air traffic control system to track everything and warn operators before they crash. It helps keep the orbital lanes clear so that satellites can operate safely without hitting debris.
The rapid increase in spacecraft and space debris creates a high risk of collisions, which can destroy expensive assets and render orbital paths unusable.
Improved operational services for Collision Avoidance, Fragmentation, and Re-entry, along with a more accurate space object catalogue.
If you are a fleet operator dealing with the risk of orbital collisions — this project developed improved Collision Avoidance and catalogue accuracy that reduces the chance of losing expensive assets. It ensures your satellites stay operational by providing better tracking data.
If you are a manufacturer dealing with strict debris mitigation regulations — this project developed new missions for debris remediation and mitigation. This allows you to design satellites that comply with future sustainability standards.
If you are a national agency dealing with a contested space environment — this project developed autonomous Space Surveillance and Tracking capacities. This provides the security and defense dimensions needed to protect strategic orbital assets.
Based on available project data, the specific pricing for end-users is not listed, as the project is funded by an 8,000,000 EUR EU grant to enhance operational capabilities.
Yes, a primary objective is ensuring the scalability of the EUSST regarding the rapidly increasing number of spacecrafts and space debris.
Based on available project data, licensing details are not provided; however, the project is managed by the Spanish Space Agency as the coordinator for a 21-partner consortium.
It evolves the existing portfolio of Collision Avoidance, Fragmentation, and Re-entry services to meet future user needs and space environment changes.
The project period runs from 2023-07-01 to 2026-06-30, focusing on pre-developments and early demonstrations of new services.
The consortium is heavily weighted toward public and research entities, consisting of 21 partners from 15 countries. With 9 research organizations, 10 'other' entities (likely agencies), and 2 universities, there is a 0% industry ratio. This indicates the project is focused on sovereign capability and public infrastructure rather than immediate commercial product development.
