Company description

Blue Skies Space builds satellites designed to collect data on planets, orbiting asteroids and stars, and operates the Twinkle space science mission .

Blue Skies Space builds satellites designed to collect data on planets, orbiting asteroids and stars, and operates the Twinkle space science mission.

At Blue Skies Space Ltd, we aim to break the current bespoke, publicly-funded model for astronomy and astrophysics missions and employ a commercial approach to create new opportunities for cutting-edge science. Our vision is to enable cost-effective, quickly-delivered scientific instruments for users worldwide through a service-based model.

Project impact

Our first project, the Twinkle Space Mission, will carry unique instrumentation designed to analyse the atmospheres of exoplanets and give radical insights into worlds orbiting distant stars. The Twinkle satellite will be based on a tried-and-tested structure, built by the world-leading space company, Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd.

BSSL was setup in 2014 to allow our team to develop the "Twinkle" satellite.

A new branch of the company was opened in 2023 (Blue Skies Space Italia SRL). We are currently building two low-orbit satellites: "Twinkle" and "Mauve". We are studying new concepts for astrophysical missions (funded). The company is growing: we have closed in early March a very successful funding round with investments from private investors, we are planning a press release in April.
