The company says it will rework its BADGER antenna design and compete for the follow-on effort

NASA has disqualified one of the two proposals for a large astrophysics mission, a decision the project’s leader blames on upheaval within the agency last year.

Shanghai-based laser communications startup BlueStar Optical Domain has raised funding in the region of $70 million, highlighting growing demand from China’s emerging satellite internet constellations.

Every day, we rely on satellite navigation – so much so that it has become a target for disruption. As our dependence on the technology grows, so do the risks associated with its interruption. Some antennas offer protection from the most common types of interference, but they are bulky and expensive to manufacture. A PhD researcher’s project explores an alternative: a football-sized, 3D-printed lens antenna that could provide resilience for satellite navigation while staying simple and cheap.

The Starlab commercial space station has fully booked its commercial payload space as the joint venture developing it awaits the next phase of a NASA program.

The head of NOAA’s satellite division, on administrative leave for more than half a year, warned that workforce reductions and cuts to science programs have “lobotomized” the federal government.

When a satellite travels through orbit at up to 17,500 mph, a fraction of a second can determine whether a course correction is successful, as even minor trajectory deviations can […]

Space mobility company Impulse Space has opened a Colorado facility to support development of its spacecraft.

NASA’s Commercial Crew Program was supposed to be the template: services-based procurement, private ownership of hardware and competition between providers.
