White Paper - A Superconducting Paradigm for the Satellite Industry

The global satellite manufacturing industry is an important component of the broader space economy. Its expansion has been fuelled by technological advancements, increased demand for communication services, and higher interest in lunar and Mars missions.

In this paper, we will delve into the various aspects of this burgeoning industry by looking at satellite manufacturing trends, market sizes for GEO (Geostationary Orbit) and Non-GEO satellites, and specific trends in mass classes.

The overall picture will then guide us to understand better force-generating technologies like propulsion systems, thrusters, flywheels, and magnetorquers and how superconductors are playing an increasingly important role in the satellite industry for better performance of spacecrafts.
