LAUNCH
From 2025
SafeSat started in Seoul, driven by a shared passion for space.
The team designed three business phases for IPO.
Lean canvas, business model, and prototype launched.
Welcome to Low Earth Orbit, where micro space debris, flying at ~10 km/s, erodes your solar panels. This growing debris population is not tracked by ground-based systems, making avoidance impossible.
“It is compelling to see the consideration of materials engineering challenges involved in using aerogels in the space environment. This is an interesting project.”
— Dr. G. Divitini, Principal Investigator of electron microscopy at the Italian Institute of Technology
“Like you have two properties here [with increasing thickness, you absorb more light while becoming mechanically more stable; there is a trade-off between these properties], you know, that that’s very much real engineering.”
— Dr. Emilie Ringe, Deputy Head of the Department of Materials Science & Metallurgy at Cambridge University
