Telespazio works to bring Space closer to Earth, benefitting citizens, institutions and companies in a variety of sectors ranging from design and development of space systems to management of launch services and in orbit satellite control; from Earth observation to integrated satellite communication, navigation and localisation services, and through to scientific programmes.
Its open innovation approach, together with the cross-contamination of different operational domains and a constant focus on issues of environmental sustainability, allow Telespazio to operate in sectors that will become increasingly important in the years to come: from communication and positioning services for the Moon to management and monitoring of satellites and other orbiting objects (Space Domain Awareness), and creation of advanced in orbit services and satellite operation of drones and unmanned vehicles.
Moreover, using innovations such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to process big data from satellites, Telespazio is in the front lines of development of space applications capable of improving people’s lives on our planet and helping to win the great challenges of our times, such as the effects of climate change.
Telespazio is a joint venture between Leonardo (67%) and Thales (33%) and one of the world’s biggest suppliers of satellite solutions and services.
