    COVID-19 Impact Analysis on Small Satellite Market

    Due to rapid spread of COVID-19  in many regions such as Europe, the US & Asia Pacific, there was a significant drop in demand for small satellites. Also there was corresponding reduction in revenues for various service providers, suppliers across small satellite market owing to manufacturing shutdown, late delivery, limited availability of equipment and limited staff at manufacturing facilities.

     

    For an instance, the U.S. Space Force delayed the launch of Falcon 9, a GPS satellite, by 2 months due to COvid-19 impact. However, the global small satellite demand is anticipated to recover by 2022 fully.

     

    Increasing Demand for High-Resolution Images  

    The demand for small satellites is growing substantially all around the world. As per records of nanosats.eu, there are more than 2800 nanosatellites launched into Earth’s orbit as of January 2021. Key players in the industry are launching constellations of nanosatellites or microsatellites into Earth’s orbit for applications including telecommunications and earth observation.

    For an instance in January 2020, Sateliot, a nanosatellite and telecommunications operator, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the European Space Agency (ESA) to research, develop, and deploy novel space-capable technologies, goods, and services leveraging 5G. At the back of these factors, the market of small satellites is expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period.
