With increasing interest in lunar exploration and commercial activities extending beyond Earth’s orbit, the cislunar infrastructure market is swiftly evolving into a pivotal sector within the space industry. Defined as the region between Earth and the Moon, “Cislunar space” presents distinctive prospects and challenges in developing infrastructure to facilitate diverse space missions and operations.
The Europe cislunar infrastructure market is estimated to reach $5.01 billion by 2033 from $1.19 billion in 2022, at a growth rate of 12.80% during the forecast period 2023-2033.
The European cislunar infrastructure business is driven by crucial components such as propulsion systems, communication systems, space stations, in-space transit systems, and resource utilization.
Investments in technology have advanced propulsion and communication systems, but the industry’s viability depends on improvements in space stations, in-space transit systems, and resource utilization. These elements are essential for longer missions, sustainable human presence, and lunar resource utilization beyond Earth’s orbit.
The growth of the European market is a consequence of heightened attention from space agencies, businesses, and global collaborative ventures. Growth is facilitated by improvements in reusable launch vehicle reliability and propulsion technology, with major stakeholders addressing communication network reliability and the growing demand for in-space transportation solutions.
BIS Research, a leading market research firm, has released a report titled- Europe Cislunar Infrastructure Market, which discusses the challenges, growth factors, and future opportunities driving the remarkable growth of the Europe Cislunar infrastructure market.
Some major companies operating in the global Europe cislunar infrastructure market are:
The Europe cislunar market is segmented by technology and country. Propulsion systems, space stations, communication systems (relay satellites), and in-space transportation systems are the main market categories by technology in the cislunar infrastructure market. The communication systems segment leads the market with a 46.78% share in 2023.
Moreover, the European Space Agency (ESA) plays a pivotal collaborative role in significant cislunar infrastructure initiatives, participating in NASA’s Artemis program, Roscosmos’s Luna program, and China’s International Lunar Research Station (ILRS) program.
The European cislunar infrastructure market is propelled by robust collaboration with international partners, emphasizing joint space missions and partnerships. This approach enables Europe to pool resources, share expertise, and collectively develop solutions, expanding market presence and contributing to global space initiatives. Moreover, Europe’s technological prowess in advanced space technologies, such as propulsion systems and robotics, positions the continent at the forefront of the cislunar infrastructure market, driving demand and ensuring competitiveness in the global space industry.
The European cislunar infrastructure market faces challenges tied to international collaborations, requiring adept management of geopolitical dynamics for adequate access to missions and resource sharing. Another significant challenge involves maintaining and upgrading infrastructure assets over their operational lifespan. The harsh space environment and evolving mission requirements demand regular investments in repairs and upgrades, necessitating strategic planning for long-term sustainability.
In the opinion of BIS principal analyst: “To facilitate long-term lunar expeditions, scientific research, and prospective future space trips to other planets, the building of cislunar infrastructure—including dwellings, lunar landers, and resource extraction systems—is vital. This infrastructure enables safe operations, effective resource usage, and integration with current space assets and networks by addressing the problems and requirements of the cislunar environment.”
