Building on a Decade of Innovation Series
One of EROSS SC’s greatest strengths lies in the continuity of expertise developed across successive generations of EROSS projects.
As Europe prepares for the next phase of in-space operations and services, EROSS SC brings together organisations that have contributed to the programme's evolution over more than a decade – transforming early concepts into technologies approaching operational maturity.
As part of this effort, Arribes Enlightenment leads the project’s Life Cycle Analysis (LCA), assessing the environmental impact of the servicing mission throughout its entire lifecycle – from manufacturing and launch to in-orbit operations and end-of-life disposal.
This work helps identify opportunities to reduce environmental impacts, improve resource efficiency and support the development of more sustainable space operations. It also contributes to one of the core ambitions of EROSS SC: enabling a more circular space economy by extending satellite lifetimes, reducing waste and promoting the responsible use of space resources.
By combining technological innovation with sustainability principles, EROSS SC is helping ensure that the future of space servicing is not only technically feasible, but also environmentally responsible. ♻️🌌🛰️
