A Revolution in Space Power
An mPower Technology White Paper
The space market is going through a massive transformation. Companies such as SpaceX, Amazon, Telesat, and OneWeb, as well as groups from countries such as China, India and Russia have announced plans to launch “megaconstellations” of smaller Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites that could put over 45,000 satellites into orbit during the next decade. That’s more than five times the number of objects sent to space in the past 60 years, which totals just shy of 9,000 according to the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs.
