Global SSA Market to Reach $61B as Governments Prioritize Space Security, Resilience, and Orbital Safety

The 2nd edition of Novaspace’s Space Situational Awareness (SSA) report points to a pivotal decade ahead, with cumulative global spending projected to reach $61 billion over the next ten years. Amid rising orbital congestion, contested space activity, and growing geopolitical tensions, SSA is becoming foundational to space security, operational resilience, and long-term orbital safety.    

From Experimentation to Operations: Key Insights from Novaspace at Space Symposium 2026 

At Space Symposium 2026, Novaspace brought together global leaders to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping space systems. Discussions revealed a clear transition from experimentation to operational deployment, with AI driving advances in space computing, interoperability, and defense applications. As trust, power constraints, and real-time decision-making take center stage, the industry is entering a new phase of AI-enabled space operations.

Clear Orbit, Secure Future: A Call to Action on Space Debris

Space debris is no longer a distant risk—it is an economic reality. Contributing to the World Economic Forum’s latest report, Novaspace quantifies how orbital congestion could cost the global space economy up to $42.3 billion by 2035, underscoring the urgent need for coordinated action across industry, policy and technology.

2026 Outlook: What to Expect in the Space Industry 

Introduction  After a decade of expansion fueled by commercial optimism and technological momentum, the space industry enters 2026 under a different set of rules. The industry is moving from a phase where success was defined by how fast systems could be put in orbit, to one where it is defined by how reliably, sustainably, and strategically those […]

The Missing Link to Space Superiority: In-Orbit Refueling

Space superiority is no longer defined by launch capacity, but by maneuverability and endurance in orbit. In-orbit refueling removes the fuel constraint that limits today’s space systems. Discover why it is becoming critical infrastructure for defense and commercial space.
