To promote, develop, and disseminate scientific research and space and aerospace technology, and to implement Italy’s space policy in accordance with government guidelines: this is the mission of ASI, the public agency established in 1988 and now one of the world’s leading space agencies. With these objectives in mind, the Agency contributes daily to advancing our understanding of the universe and to the development of innovative technologies. In addition to its headquarters in Rome, which also houses the Space Science Data Centre, ASI has operational centers in Matera (Giuseppe Colombo Space Centre), in Selargius near Cagliari (Sardinia Deep Space Antenna), and in Malindi, Kenya (Luigi Broglio Space Centre). It holds stakes in companies in the sector (Altec, e-Geos, SpaceLab) and participates in the E. Amaldi Foundation. ASI also boasts solid diplomatic expertise, which it uses to develop strategic partnerships with all major space agencies.
HEX20 delivers end-to-end satellite mission solutions spanning design, development, qualification, launch integration, deployment, and in-orbit operations.
We develop modular and scalable CubeSat to microsatellite platforms supporting technology demonstrations, SATCOM, Earth Observation, PNT, and hosted payload missions across LEO, cislunar, and deep-space environments.
Currently, we are executing an Earth Observation constellation integrating SWIR payloads, GHG monitoring instruments, and optical imaging systems with high-bandwidth inter-satellite links (ISL), offering long-term rideshare opportunities.
With multiple programs advancing, HEX20 continues to expand its capabilities in launch services, capacity development, and FLATSAT-based training initiatives globally.
Teledyne Space is a trusted global leader in innovative engineered solutions, manufacturing advanced electronics, imaging and sensor systems for space. Working with the world’s foremost space agencies, NASA, ESA, JAXA, and KASA, collaborating on space projects for over half a century, we deliver across a wide range of applications for institutional requirements through to commercial space specifications.
Science Explorer (SciX) is a NASA-funded digital library operated by the Center for Astrophysics. Building on the successful Astrophysics Data System (ADS), SciX connects researchers to over 35 million records—including literature, data, and software—across astronomy, Earth science, heliophysics, physics, and planetary science. The platform offers a user-friendly search interface with citation tracking and direct links to external datasets. By adhering to FAIR principles and NASA’s open science goals, SciX makes scientific knowledge highly accessible, ultimately fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and accelerating research.
Space It Up! connects Italy’s leading universities, research centers, and companies to advance space research and technology. Through the Space It Up! Program, funded by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and the Ministry of University and Research (MUR), it explores nine key research areas, ranging from robotics and autonomous systems to human spaceflight, planetary resources, life sciences, and advanced habitats.
By combining academic expertise with industrial know-how, the program addresses critical challenges such as resource mapping, in-situ resource utilization, astronaut health, and bioregenerative life-support systems. Shared infrastructures and coordinated strategies foster collaboration, accelerate technological development, and strengthen space capabilities, contributing to a more sustainable space economy.

Since the dawn of the Space Age, Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab (APL) has expanded the frontiers of space science and technology. We took the first picture of Earth from space, invented satellite navigation, dispatched spacecraft across the solar system, and demonstrated technology to advance our nation’s security. As spaceflight pioneers with six decades of experience, APL has designed, built, and operated and led more than 70 spacecraft missions—including some of NASA’s and the nation’s most innovative and challenging missions over the past two decades.
