ESA Connectivity and Secure Communications

  • Space-enabled air traffic control takes flight globally

    Air travellers will shrink their carbon footprint while reducing flight delays worldwide, thanks to a collaboration between the European Space Agency (ESA), satellite operator Viasat and aerospace company Boeing. Flights to test the space-based technology with new aviation standards from and to the USA and Europe took place in late October and early November.

  • Smarter flights for ITA Airways through satellites

    Passengers on Italian airline ITA Airways will be able to fly smarter and greener and with less delays thanks to the airline’s recent implementation of the Iris technology, developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) and global communications company Viasat.

  • Three more Greek CubeSats reach space

    Cleaner airwaves and safer seas will be soon possible thanks to the launch of three small Greek satellites. Supported by the European Space Agency (ESA), satellites of the PHASMA and MICE-1 missions launched on 28 November, where they will demonstrate new capabilities in radio frequencies usage and maritime tracking from space.

  • Europe chooses resilient and secure space-enabled connectivity with €2.1 billion investment

    In a time of profound technological and geopolitical challenges, Europe will continue to support the need for secure satellite communications. This was the clear message given at the European Space Agency's (ESA) Council meeting at Ministerial Level, in Bremen, Germany.

  • SpainSat NG programme completed as second secure communications satellite launches

    Europe has strengthened its secure-communications capabilities with the successful launch of SpainSat NG II on 24 October, wrapping up the SpainSat Next Generation programme supported by the European Space Agency (ESA). With both SpainSat NG satellites now in orbit, Europe will see its most advanced governmental communications system to date, a major step for the continent’s security, crisis-response capacity, and technological autonomy.
