The election of Donald Trump is prompting European officials to reconsider their reliance on U.S. space cooperation, with calls for increased investment in European space capabilities. Concerns about potential cuts in German space spending and the need for autonomy are driving discussions on enhancing Europe's space industry, especially in light of upcoming elections and geopolitical challenges.
The Exploration Company has secured $160 million in a Series B funding round, led by Balderton Capital and Plural, to advance its Nyx cargo spacecraft for commercial space stations. The Nyx Earth can transport up to four tons of cargo to low Earth orbit, with plans to expand to cislunar space. The company has contracts with Axiom Space, Starlab Space, and Vast, and aims to redefine European leadership in space exploration.
The European Space Agency is advancing preparations for the Hera asteroid mission, set to launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 on October 7, despite the rocket's grounding due to a recent anomaly. Hera will study the asteroid Didymos and its moon Dimorphos, following NASA's DART impact, to assess the efficiency of the collision and its effects on the asteroid's surface. With a final cost of 363 million euros, the mission has also enabled funding for a future mission to the asteroid Apophis.
