Redwire Space Europe
The core business of Redwire Space Europe is the development & sale of robotic arms for space applications. Additionally, Redwire Space Europe also participates in collaborative R&D projects related to robotic arm applications in space and extreme terrestrial environments. By lowering barriers to sophisticated in-space robotics, Redwire Space Europe is helping introduce the next generation of space industrialization.
Space-rated robotic arms offered by Redwire Space Europe are the company’s main product.
The robotic arms are designed to carry out a range of functions which are widely applicable across space-based robotic missions. Satellite servicing, refuelling operations, station-keeping, manipulation of payloads, in-orbit assembly, planetary exploration, and in-situ resource utilisation (ISRU) can all be beneficially augmented with the use of Redwire Space Europe robotic arms.
Space Cargo Unlimited
Space Cargo Unlimited aims to seize the high, although still untapped, potential of in-space manufacturing. We believe the space environment offers unique conditions to design & manufacture a variety of high value products for back on Earth, extremely difficult or impossible to manufacture as such on Earth.
Manufacturing assets at scale in LEO requires payloads and payload infrastructures of the next generation. SCU dedicates its assets towards enabling the factory of the future with newly developed specific key technologies, a new generation of payloads, payload infrastructures as well as a new generation of space vehicle fleet, called REV1, fine-tuned for go-to-market programs such as SCU’s iconic initial program WISE, on the future of agriculture and viticulture.
ispace Europe
ispace is a private lunar exploration company and a leading innovator in space robotics and data analytics. ispace has a global presence with headquarters in Japan and offices in Luxembourg and in the US. The company is developing among the first lunar landers (spacecraft for delivery to the lunar surface) and lunar rovers (robots for surface mobility). These key technological solutions coupled with ispace’s in-house capabilities and competences in data analytics and space resources are what sets ispace apart as one-stop shop for lunar transportation & exploration and expanding business opportunities on the Moon.
ispace vision is to create a new ecosystem in outer space and expand the human living sphere beyond Earth. In 2022, ispace became the first fully private company to successfully launch a lander to the Moon.
European Space Resources Innovation Center (ESRIC)
ESRIC is the first research, business and innovation centre exclusively focused on the use of space resources in support of human and robotic space exploration and the creation of an in-space economy. ESRIC is a joint initiative of the Luxembourg Space Agency (LSA), the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) and the European Space Agency (ESA).
ESRIC’s activities are based on three main pillars: research and innovation, support for economic activities, community, and knowledge management. ESRIC connects leading academic, industrial, and entrepreneurial talents in the field, as well as contributes to economic growth by supporting commercial initiatives and start-ups. The ESRIC Star-up Support Programme brings a business incubation component and enables technology transfer between space and non-space players.
Bradford Space
Bradford Space develops technologies to export the NewSpace philosophy, and the increased value proposition it has already offered in LEO, to beyond LEO applications, such as GEO, lunar and interplanetary space. This accelerates the cadence of scientific exploration and enables new business uses in these frontiers.
Bradford Space offers affordable and high-performance avionics whose robust and performing nature makes them well-suited for both deep space and demanding near Earth orbit applications.
Bradford Space produces the Comet propulsion system which is a launch-safe and cost-effective electrothermal propulsion system offering the ideal balance of cost and performance. Comet uses water as propellant which allows it to be handled and fuelled at the factory with ease. Its highly flexible interface is easy to integrate into small satellites and to operate on orbit.
