Primary Catalyst Driving Small Satellite Market Evolution in 2025: Surge In Space Exploration Drives Growth In The Small Satellite Market Driver

What combination of drivers is leading to accelerated growth in the small satellite market?
The growth of the small satellite market is significantly propelled by the surge in space exploration missions. Small satellites are being increasingly utilized by global government agencies in order to fulfill their space mission objectives. As reported by Economic Times, an English-language daily newspaper, it is estimated by the China's National Space Administration (CNSA) that around 100 satellites will be launched by the government by 2025. In a similar vein, the US Air Force Research Laboratory, a scientific research entity run by the United States Air Force Materiel Command, intends to enhance its space awareness facilities beyond the geostationary orbit. It plans to begin lunar patrol missions, thus taking their mission to the other side of the moon, resulting in an approximately 1000 times increase. Such developments are expected to positively impact the demand and usage of small satellites worldwide.
