A $4 billion reactor that never switched on is now hosting Europe's space and defence community. Mission-K 2026 in Kalkar is worth paying attention to. #MissionK #SpaceDefence spacewatch.global/2026/09/mi…

Europe's reflex: build the institution first, deliver later. At the Vaduz Space Dialogue, that logic met a hard 2029 deadline. Can satellite federation start now, without waiting for a perfect framework? #SpacePolicy #SecureConnectivity spacewatch.global/2026/09/sp…

Europe's connectivity answer might not be a new constellation. It could be federating the ones that already exist. Vaduz 2026 made the case. Is the governance model ready? #SpacePolicy #Spectrum spacewatch.global/2026/09/va…

COSCO operates the world's largest shipping fleet and, per US officials, a potential SIGINT network. Can space-based maritime awareness help manage the risk without rupturing global supply chains? #MaritimeSecurity #SpaceWatch spacewatch.global/2026/09/sp…

Côte d'Ivoire signed the Artemis Accords at Africa Space Expo 2026, becoming the 9th African signatory. Five countries from the continent joined in 2026 alone. What is behind this momentum? #ArtemisAccords #AfricaSpace spacewatch.global/2026/09/co…

Starship reaches for orbit on Flight 14, carrying 26 Starlink V3 satellites. First orbital payload, first reentry data. What comes next could be even bigger. #Starship #SpaceX spacewatch.global/2026/09/sp…

India's first orbital computing satellite launches October 1. AI runs onboard, results come down, not raw data. Here's why that matters for Earth observation. #NewSpace #Satellite spacewatch.global/2026/09/in…

NASA has chosen PRIMA as the first mission in its new Probe Explorers class. Far-infrared wavelengths, cold cosmic dust, and a 2033 launch target. What gap is this telescope designed to fill? #NASA #Astrophysics spacewatch.global/2026/09/na…
