The future of space operations is evolving, and In-Space Operations and Services (ISOS) are set to play a pivotal role in ensuring the sustainability and efficiency of space activities. EROSS SC is at the heart of this transformation, contributing to the development of advanced robotic servicing capabilities that will redefine how we interact with space assets.
As satellites and space infrastructure become increasingly critical to global connectivity, Earth observation, and space exploration, the ability to maintain, repair, and enhance these assets while in orbit is essential. EROSS SC is leading the way by developing autonomous on-orbit servicing (OOS) solutions, which include:
Satellite life extension through in-orbit refuelling and component replacement.
Autonomous rendezvous and docking technologies to enable efficient servicing missions.
Debris removal and sustainable space operations, ensuring a cleaner orbital environment.
These advancements contribute to Europe's ambition to establish a competitive and independent capability in ISOS, reinforcing its role in the global space ecosystem.
EROSS SC is part of a broader European initiative aimed at strengthening strategic autonomy in space operations. By collaborating with leading industry players, research institutions, and space agencies, the project ensures that Europe remains at the forefront of robotic and autonomous servicing technologies.
The integration of ISOS capabilities into future space missions will reduce operational costs, extend mission lifetimes, and promote a more circular approach to space resources. With EROSS SC leading the charge, Europe is poised to revolutionise space logistics and servicing, setting new standards for sustainable space operations.
Stay tuned as EROSS SC continues to push the boundaries of on-orbit servicing and ISOS technologies.
