New Era Of Autonomous Decision Making In Space Exploration
The traditional model of satellite operation is being disrupted by the increasing number of spacecraft in orbit, with AI stepping in to fill the gap. According to Martin Halliwell, a Partner at NewSpace Capital, AI is changing three key aspects of spacecraft and satellite operations: onboard decision-making, constellation management, and communication network optimization. This shift towards autonomous decision-making may revolutionize the space industry, as reported by Space.com.
