What Are the Key Trends Driving Orbital Transfer Vehicle Market Growth?
Leading entities in the orbital transfer vehicle industry are focusing on creating updated spacecrafts, including those with high-thrust and manoeuvrability, to improve in-space mobility and transport loads efficiently in various orbits. High-thrust, manoeuvrable spacecrafts are essentially vehicles with robust propulsion engines and advanced control systems, facilitating precise orbit modifications and efficient transferring of payload across different orbits. An instance of this is when Impulse Space Inc., a US-based firm dedicated to the development of in-space transportation technologies and services for satellites, launched its improved Mira vehicle in August 2025. This vehicle, uniquely designed for payload hosting and deployment, is a highly thrusting and extraordinarily manoeuvrable platform. The refined system comes with improved propulsion, expandable solar arrays providing augmented power for payloads, and advanced self-regulating software promoting on-orbit mission transformation. These features make Mira a supportive platform for exact orbital operations, enhanced guiding and control, becoming noteworthy for intricate operations, such as Earth examination and space domain awareness (SDA) missions.
