The world is already changing as a result of artificial intelligence (AI). According to a Space News media article, the space industries are nowhere near catching up in terms of figuring out new methods to apply the widely used technology for commercial and national security applications.
Alvaro Alonso Ruiz, co-founder of Leanspace, a cloud platform for space missions, stated that “AI is of supreme relevance whether it is for running constellations or operating any system,” which lends credence to the notion.
According to him, AI and machine learning will help operators with planning for remote-sensing constellations in satellite operations, including running simulations and identifying the resources required.
To establish the technologies’ use in creating a more sustainable business in space, he continued, resource optimization is a significant breakthrough.
A growing interest in machine learning, according to Kameron Baumgardner, chief technology officer at the IT service and consulting firm Resilient Solutions 21, is drawn to autonomous space operations.
He continued by saying that his business is building technology for the next space test programme and highlighted the main difficulty with AI applications that hinders the creation of a strong data analytics architecture.
According to Jeromy Grimmett, the founder and CEO of Rogue Space Systems, AI is helping companies to better develop and plan their businesses.
An interesting application to the economics of space and doing analysis for better engineering of services and capabilities, Jeromy continued, is the use of AI and simulation to improve our working designs.
The private operators’ propensity for AI is probably going to be very beneficial for the space industry, particularly for scientific research, spacecraft operations, mission analysis, deep space network operations, and space transportation systems.
