Bridging the gap between innovation and implementation is at the very heart of NewSpace, and the emergence of the small satellite ecosystem, a new era for the space and satellite industry, heralds great promise for the global economy, for society, and for development. Among other themes, this chapter will explore:

    The current trends in the “smallsats” ecosystem

    The game-changing developments in the antenna/terminal ground segment

    The importance of the mobility markets

    The competing “state-of-the-art” solutions in the flat panel antenna market and associated forecasts and trends to 2028

    Drivers other than just technology

    Teleports transitioning to data center centric models

    The changing interrelationship of the satcoms and Earth observation environments

    The responsibilities of the operators of the emerging mega-constellations to maintain the sustainability of the operational environment of low Earth orbit
