(USGovernment-News.Com, July 10, 2024 ) The Space Propulsion Market is poised for significant growth, projected to reach USD 18.1 billion by 2028 from USD 10.6 billion in 2023, marking a CAGR of 11.3%. The market's expansion is driven by the increasing demand for advanced electric propulsion systems, significant investments in space exploration, and the growing use of small satellites in commercial and military applications.
Medium satellites are expected to grow at a notable CAGR due to their extensive use in climate monitoring, Earth observation, scientific research, and security applications. They range from 500 kg to 2,500 kg in mass and, although more costly than small satellites, offer greater functionality.
