HEMERIA was selected by UK based Astroscale Ltd, to build the structural panels for the upcoming ELSA-M mission. Headquartered in Japan, Astroscale is uniquely focused on securing space sustainability across all orbits.
The objective of the ELSA-M mission is to safely and responsibly capture and remove multiple (M) client satellites in a single mission, providing End-Of-Life-Services (ELSA).
As part of this mission, HEMERIA has been entrusted with the production of 21 structural panels for the SQM and PFM space vehicles, which will be manufactured over 2023.
This case is strategically important for HEMERIA, as Astroscale is a new international customer at the forefront of new space applications.

HEMERIA, a leading provider of Multi-Layer Insulation (MLI) Blankets to the global space industry, today announced it has been selected by Airbus OneWeb Satellites, LLC (AOS) to design and build Betacloth MLI. The hardware will be integrated into the portfolio of Arrow commercial small satellites manufactured by AOS.
Airbus OneWeb Satellites LLC is a joint venture between Airbus and OneWeb. AOS manufactures satellites for the OneWeb commercial constellation and Airbus customers in Merritt Island, Florida. AOS is producing satellites for Airbus U.S. Space & Defense, Inc., in support of U.S. government programs.

HEMERIA, as leader of a consortium of 7 partners (ANYWAVES, COMAT, CS GROUP, MECANO ID, STEEL ELECTRONIQUE, Syntony GNSS), has been selected by the French Ministry for the Economy, Finance and Recovery as a beneficiary of the “France Relance” recovery plan, under the ASTROID project (Advanced Satellite Technology, Radio Occultation and IoD Demonstrator), which consists of in-orbit testing on a HEMERIA smallsat platform of equipment and technological solutions from our 6 partners to qualify them for an operational environment. This mission is financed by all the partners.

🚨 HEMERIA announces the acquisition of CNIM Air Space, European leader in stratospheric, captive and maneuvering aerostats.

The sovereign fund DEFINVEST of the Ministry of the Armed Forces remains the holder of 15% of the capital, alongside HEMERIA Invest, HEMERIA’s parent company.

Recognized specialist in helium-filled aerostats, backed by long experience and a key position with major European customers, CNIM Air Space develops and manufactures high-tech products such as balloons, airships and diridrones.

HEMERIA signs long-term partnership (2022-2030) with Thales Alenia Space to industrialize and mass-produce aluminum composite structures for SPACE INSPIRE, its new range of innovative software defined telecommunications satellites.
This agreement is the culmination of nearly two years of co-engineering for the industrial implementation of special processes and technologies combining performance, short cycles and competitiveness.
This process was supported by CNES (French space agency), which supports R&D of the SPACE INSPIRE product line, through the Future Investment Program (PIA).
This partnership consolidates the industrial relationship between our two companies, initiated through the constellation projects (Globalstar 2, O3B and IRIDIUM NEXT) and currently pursued within the KINEIS constellation dedicated to the Internet of Things.

Nicolas Multan and the HEMERIA teams had the pleasure of receiving General Philippe ADAM, recently appointed head of the Space Command, and Colonel Xavier Gallais this morning.

This meeting provided an opportunity to discuss current topics such as #YODA, the demonstrator of two patrolling smallsats that will operate in geostationary orbit to protect French military satellites from suspicious maneuvers, or to address other topics of interest in the field of space.

It was a great pleasure for Philippe Gautier and our team to welcome the Head of the DGA, JOËL BARRE, who came to see the targeting turret soon to be delivered to DGA – Direction générale de l’armement.

Our turret and its “command post” shelter arrived safely at the Invalides monument in Paris as part of the Bastille Day parade.
Our team of experts Bertrand HUVENOIT, Michaël Krebs and Vincent Bussières are delighted to receive the public to present this new targeting system for the DGA – Direction générale de l’armement.
