🚀 A major Milestone achieved: WaterCube Engineering Model EM-01 test campaign completed! 🚀 Our EM-01 functional and performance test campaign has been a resounding success, marking a pivotal step forward in WaterCube’s journey towards flight readiness. Highlights from our testing include: ✅ Successful functional tests across various power and flowrate setpoints, demonstrating versatility and adaptability in diverse operational conditions. ✅ Validated ConOps, with flawless transitions between idle, warm-up, pulsed flow and steady-state modes. ✅ Reliability and endurance tests passed brilliantly, with critical components showing no signs of failure or performance degradation, even in extended (> 1000 seconds! 💨💨) firing (or rather steaming) tests. ✅ Performance validation confirmed that the actual thrust and flowrate are precisely in line with the initial design model, showcasing WaterCube’s commitment to delivering consistent, dependable propulsion. This campaign brings us one step closer to revolutionising sustainable space propulsion. Massive thanks to our dedicated team (Francesco, Ivan, Dani, Abhronil, Athos, Lorenzo, Riccardo, Gianluigi) and all our partners and mentors who helped make this milestone possible! 🌍 Ready to power the next generation of small satellites?

Thanks to Takeoff Accelerator for inviting me to keynote the Takeoff Accelerator Expo. My intention was to leave a message of unbridled optimism about space entrepreneurship, highlighting just 3 themes: - Ongoing cost decreases and greater ease of accessing & operating in #space - Continuing government support (with an update of potential implications of the U.S. election results) - Increasing opportunities for space-enabled applications serving large non-space sectors on Earth (and therefore also opportunities for entrepreneurs who may not originally come from the space sector) Great conversations in Torino and congrats to the 3rd batch startup graduates Alpha Impulsion Capsule Corporation Delta Space Leonis S.r.l.
