Denver-Based Space Company Expands Into Terrestrial Autonomy
York Space Systems has acquired Outlook Industries, an Australian developer of autonomous ground vehicles, to expand its capabilities in terrestrial autonomy. The acquisition pairs Outlook’s Shadow UGV with York’s multi-orbit satellite terminal technology, which was acquired through the purchase of ALL.SPACE in July. York has formed a new business unit, York Terrestrial Systems, to integrate its space and ground capabilities. The move is seen as a strategic shift towards integrated space-to-ground systems, which could provide a competitive edge in the growing market for multi-orbit satellite links. The acquisition was reported by TECHTIMES.com.
