The growing quantity of space debris located in economically and scientifically crucial orbits poses a serious hazard to functioning satellites.]]> https://spacewatch.global/2022/06/swglobal-opinion-asia-tech-x-singapore-working-towards-a-more-diverse-and-sustainable-space-sector/ Fri, 24 Jun 2022 07:00:17 +0000 https://spacewatch.global/?p=41749 The Asia Tech x Singapore (ATxSG) conference took place from May 31 to June 3 in Singapore, the Lion City. Composed of several events such as the Asia Satellite Business Week, BroadcastAsia, CommunicAsia, ATxAI and others, it constituted a golden opportunity to catch up with the state-of-the-art technology and emerging trends across many parts of the tech sector.]]> https://spacewatch.global/2018/04/spacewatchgl-interviews/ Sun, 29 Apr 2018 07:00:08 +0000 https://spacewatch.global/?p=8515 Effective Space is poised to launch two spacecraft in 2020 that promise to transform our capabilities in space through in-orbit servicing. These SPACE DRONE™ spacecraft can extend the life of satellites that are reaching the end of their operational term, giving them a new lease of life, and enabling operators to continue bringing in revenues from their space assets long after they would originally have been decommissioned. This is true disruptive technology that will ultimately lead to many other avenues in the in-orbit servicing sector, and can help to tackle the critical challenges that the satellite industry faces such as how we deal with space debris. Helen Jameson, Editor-in-Chief, Spacewatch.Global, spoke to Daniel Campbell, UK Managing Director of Effective Space to get the lowdown on a company that is set to deliver unprecedented services to the space community. ]]>
