Physics underpins and enables space science and technology applications that play a crucial role in shaping our modern world and our way of life. 

The Institute of Physics, working with partners at Frazer-Nash Consultancy, have produced a report that showcases the impact of our physics community’s work, that is not only foundational to the space sector itself but also to the many everyday applications that stem from it and are used in other ‘traditional’ sectors.

Highlighting the work of several innovative companies who are working across three essential pillars of space technology (Position, Navigation and Timing [PNT], Earth Observation, and Satellite Communications), the report also looks ahead to some of the future opportunities that are opening up, where UK companies are at the forefront of advancements in space technology and sustainability.

Join us to hear some of the highlights from the report and learn more about IOP’s role in supporting the health of the space sector.
