Denmark’s GomSpace has partnered with Portugal’s Neuraspace to add their space traffic management to its hands-off operations platform (HOOP) for satellite operators. The combination of both will provide improved safety and further cost reduction to GomSpace’s customers.
The partnership also showcases that Neuraspace’s AI-based space traffic management, in addition to enabling operators to directly monitor their assets in orbit and pre-launch screening for rocket starts is ideally suited to be integrated into other service platforms.
HOOP is an advanced satellite operations platform built for automation, scalability and flexibility. Through it, customers can grow their business from the first satellite to a global constellation without having to invest in the operational infrastructure or needing to know how to operate them or care for the day-to-day operations.
GomSpace customers will also benefit from Neuraspace STM platform by receiving automated conjunctions alerts, in-depth analysis and collision avoidance manoeuvre suggestions. This degree of automation saves human conjunction screening time and effort and as a result costs. Knowing if and when to maneuver also reduces fuel and costly down time.
“Neuraspace is one of the leading providers of space traffic management and automation solutions, perfectly matched to enhance our HOOP platform,” said Carsten Drachmann, CEO of GomSpace. “Being able to track objects, analyse their movement and provide collision alerts as well as maneuver suggestions is vital due to the growing risk stemming from debris and increased orbital traffic.”
Chiara Manfletti, CEO of Neuraspace, said: “This partnership marks a significant step in Neuraspace’s expansion within the industry. We have already proven that our STM platform based on artificial intelligence and machine learning is highly valuable to spacecraft owners. The integration into GomSpace’s HOOP platform opens another commercial avenue for us.”
The collaboration is also part of both parties’ ongoing efforts to implement their commitments to develop sustainable space flight activities before 2030 under ESAs Zero Debris Charter, signed by both GomSpace and Neuraspace.
