Strategic Partnership Enhancing Spacecraft Radiation Protection
In July 2024, Aethero, a US-based advanced space technology company, formed a strategic alliance with Cosmic Shielding Corporation to boost spacecraft defense against cosmic radiation. This collaboration aims to incorporate Cosmic Shielding's proprietary Plasteel radiation shielding into Aethero's NxN Edge Computing Module. The integration targets critical vulnerabilities to cosmic radiation and single event effects, while enabling advanced edge processing capabilities in space. Cosmic Shielding Corporation, based in Georgia, specializes in 3D-printed, nanoparticle-infused shielding materials designed to mitigate total ionizing dose and prevent radiation-induced failures in sensitive electronics.

Innovations and Market Opportunities in Cosmic Radiation Shielding
Market leaders are increasingly focusing on securing Series A venture capital to accelerate research and development, commercialize cutting-edge shielding technologies, and support long-duration space missions. Series A funding represents a crucial phase of equity investment aimed at scaling business operations and enhancing product offerings.
For example, in June 2023, Zero-Error Systems, a semiconductor company based in Singapore, raised $7.5 million in an oversubscribed Series A round. This funding is intended to fast-track the development and commercialization of advanced semiconductor solutions designed to withstand cosmic radiation. Their technology safeguards commercial off-the-shelf semiconductor devices, ensuring reliable power and data integrity critical for space applications such as low Earth orbit satellites and deep-space rovers. The investment also supports expanded R&D efforts in Singapore and growth of their global customer base.
