Relativity Space scrubbed a launch of its Terran 1 rocket March 11 after two last-minute aborts for technical issues.

Forecasts for a weakening global economy this year are a drag for an in-flight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC) market that many satellite operators are relying on to expand their businesses.

Canada’s Department of National Defence is moving ahead with a new microsatellite project for space domain awareness.

Eutelsat said March 9 it has signed a multi-million euro deal to provide more satellite capacity to Intelsat, including from OneWeb’s low Earth orbit network the French operator is acquiring.

The U.S. Space Force is allocating three launch complexes at Cape Canaveral, including one used for several NASA Mercury missions six decades ago, to four small launch vehicle startups as the service tries to keep up with growing launch demand.

Europe’s Galileo is the world’s most precise satellite navigation system, providing metre-level accuracy and very precise timing to its four billion users. An essential ingredient to ensure this stays the case are the atomic clocks aboard each satellite, delivering pinpoint timekeeping that is maintained to a few billionths of a second. These clocks are called atomic because their ‘ticks’ come from ultra-rapid, ultra-stable oscillation of atoms between different energy states. Sustaining this performance demands, in turn, even more accurate clocks down on the ground to keep the satellites synchronised and ensure stability of time and positioning for

An impressive 70 mocktail recipes representing a wide range of flavours of ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) mission were submitted to the Agency’s #SpaceJuice competition  in January.

In-space transportation company Momentus is gearing up for a key test of one orbital transfer vehicle as it ships another for launch next month.
