Top 10 Space Tech Startups to Watch Out for in 2021
A briefing on the background of space tech
Space tech holds its importance in beneficial uses of architecture, improving communication infrastructure, sustainable development and disaster management as ruled out by UNESCO.
Space technology ascent has not witnessed a decline since its advent, no matter how serious a plague gets. One of the most progressive fields that nations swear by and that the fact that a nation possessing rich space tech enterprise are ahead of others cannot be stressed enough.
International space stations and satellite communications only beget new innovations every year, making us hopeful about a world enveloped in the sun of space technologies.
A space technology is just not an industry or field in itself that is progressing but it also responsible for heightening the standards of education. Everything that is shown in the movies are real.
The top 10 space tech start-ups that can brighten the future space technology
1. Alen space
Alen space start-up believes in portability and hence compatibility as well. Satellites are generally massive in size that makes them inconvenient for applications.
Acknowledging this problem, Alen space provides nano satellite solutions which can be used for communication, mission software and turnkey applications. They are also known to assist in internet of things and signals intelligence.
2. Enpulsion space craft technology
An Austrian based start-up, Enpulsion space craft technology manufactures IFM nano thrusters technology. This technology propels field emission electricity which saves the rocket from severe jolts and prevents damage.
The facility of electric propulsion also helps the satellites to move steadily so that the duration of the mission is increased.
3. Infostellar
Based in Japan, it happens to facilitate ground stations. It achieves its objectives by using satellites that are adept in gathering data from the ground stations.
Made with high security, the satellites not only achieve mission from earth stations or remote terminals, gaining some extra capacity can help the stations generate revenues.
4. Skyroot Aerospace
A start-up based in India, Hyderabad, this start-up aims in producing light-weight rocket engines. Conventionally, engines contribute to heavy weights of rockets that often fail them in their missions.
Skyroot has the record of being the first private start-up which tests the upper stage of the rocket engine.
The company was founded by Dr. Pawan Kumar Chandana, an ex-serviceman of ISRO, Dr, Naga Bharath Daka who is currently the Chief Operating Officer at Skyroot are planning to start a family of rockets. Besides, the company plans to form rockets that can place orbits of around 200 kilograms in the lowest orbits of earth. Anticipations are that this mission can help to elevate communications and data gathering even in the times when human activities seem remote.
5. Pixxel
Pixxel is another Indian space start-up company which is new in the space technology business. It has launched its first low orbit satellite with the help of fund raised by 5 million dollars for which the leaders were Lightspeed India and others.
In the years coming up, the company wishes to launch its second low orbit satellite.
6. Cesium astro
Cesium astro is a telecommunication system that aims to produce satellites smaller in size that can communicate with other satellites, inspiring the communication systems to grow.
Cesium astro is based in United States, also deals with launches of vehicles and drones, attaching a new dimension to the communication industries and systems.
7. Kymeta
Kymeta deals with the delivery of results in form of products that are easy to use and comprehend by their clients. It aims to work towards strong mobile connectivity, convincing its clients that good communications need not be expensive. It is not area specific or has any geographical barriers and hence, has its customer dealings all-over the country.
The company is experimenting with new break-through to enhance the capacity of their satellites used for communication in order to make communication accessible in areas facing network issues.
8. Capella Space
Capella Space was started in the year 2016. The company uses high resolution satellites to gather information and insights from space. It creates a gateway for the world to access data, information with a strict timely basis.
9. Moon express
Founded by Naveen Jain, Barney Pell, and Bob Richards nearly a decade ago, the name suggests that this start-up offers affordable and commercial transportation to moon. It makes smooth travels to moon for research and mining purposes, to know it more closely to generate accuracy in their research.
10. Airobotics
Airobotics which came into being in the year 2014, was made into a reality by Meir Kliner and Ran Krauss. It deals with automated solutions that help to garner data and formulate vital insights on the information gathered. The target audiences are government sectors working on space tech and industrial business to make the best out of satellites produced by Airobotics.
