The North America satellite propulsion market was valued at US$ 3,196.51 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 9,307.63 million by 2031; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 14.3% from 2023 to 2031.
Growing Initiatives to Launch Space Landers, Spacecraft, and Space Tugs Fuel North America Satellite Propulsion Market
The global space sector is driven by rising demand from services such as earth observation, satellite communications, and positioning timing and navigation. The space sector is witnessing the growing presence of private players and experiencing heightened demand arising from the need for information related to space. Constellations of small satellites in Low Earth Orbit are a major part of this movement, known as NewSpace. In February 2024, a lunar lander took off for the moon to make the first US landing. SpaceX also launched the private Odysseus lander Falcon 9 rocket as the US lander took off for the moon. In March 2024, Blue Origin announced to launch Blue Moon lunar lander in 2025. In March 2024, SpaceX launched a Starship rocket into orbit on a test flight. Thus, the growing number of initiatives toward space landers, spacecraft, and space tugs propels the growth of the satellite propulsion market.
