"The in-orbit servicing market is maturing; demonstrations in all service areas will take place over the few next years, with operations starting soon after."
Operators are demonstrating a growing interest in in-orbit services (IOS) and rendez-vous and proximity operations (RPO) capabilities, with 78 IOS missions planned to launch from 2026 onwards. These missions will offer services such as active debris removal (ADR), de-orbiting, life extension, space situational awareness (SSA), relocation and robotics.
This report highlights upcoming announced missions in the IOS market. Each announcement is categorised by service and region and is accompanied by details to give an understanding of the emerging trends. The report is based on Analysys Mason’s In-orbit servicing missions tracker, which is updated annually.
