Satellites to be Built & Launched is a must-read for the space industry players. This report is based on an in-depth analysis of satellite applications and missions, satellite operators and users, technology advances, and the impact of these factors on the manufacturing and launch industry. It includes a database of all satellites, regardless of mass, that were launched in the last decade, as well as satellites currently under construction, and launch forecast for the next decade. It also provides detailed status and maturity assessments of 550 commercial constellations of five satellites or more and discusses the business cases for the four mega-constellations and their differing vertical integration strategies.
The forecast for satellites to be built and launched is based on a comprehensive assessment of satellite demand, including the evaluation of downstream markets, the strategies and maturity of satellite operators, and the potential emergence of new players or needs in the future.
As the long-term future of satellite demand does not result from the sum of the projects currently known (through satellite backlogs and launch planning), Novaspace applies various discount factors according to their credibility. Therefore, all constellation-related figures presented were derived from Novaspace’s assumptions and do not necessarily reflect the views of the operators.
Two time periods of reference: 10 years of historical trends and 10 years forecasts.
Extensive satellite database, with thousands of data points, covering supply and demand of 10 years.
The chapter features four distinct possible scenarios the space sector in the decade 2034-2043 and attempt to quantify their respective ramifications for satellite indicators in number, mass and value of satellites to be launched.
• For the first time, the Satellites to be Built and Launched report extends its forecasting horizon
beyond the typical 10 years, aiming to project the future of the space sector through 2043. This
chapter provides satellite indicators—such as the number of units, mass, and value—using a
foresight methodology developed by Novaspace. This addresses the increasingly complex space
environment, preparing for both tomorrow’s challenges and those of the more distant future.
• As another novelty of this edition, the report features a technical focus on six emerging satellite
technologies (5G and 6G in space, edge computing in space, next-generation satellites, quantum
computing in space, multi-orbit and multi-band hybrid space solutions)
• Focus on the new VLEO satellite platform
• New supplier profiles for MDA, Swissto12, Nanoavionics, MDA, UTIAS, York Space Systems, Blue
Origin, Firefly, ULA
The report provides an in-depth analysis of software-defined satellites, also referred to as flexible satellites or “flexsats”. It examines platform and payload specifications, technology requirements, and reviews vendors’ offerings as well as customer fit and orders.
Software Defined Satellites explores market drivers, challenges, and opportunities for this emerging market, and offers forecasts for both GEO and NGSO segments based on operators’ profiles and contract statuses.
