Joining the VITA Community
November 10, 2023
We understand that modularity in space technology is just the beginning. True progress in the space industry, as in any other, hinges on standardization. That's why we're thrilled to announce we are joining VITA, a leading organization dedicated to driving open standards in the technology sector. Our philosophy is clear: we want our customers to stay with us because they love our technology, not because they feel locked in. The freedom to choose and replace is a right we deeply respect. This principle guides our dedication to using and promoting open standards. By joining the VITA community, we're not just expanding our horizons; we're committing to a future where collaboration and knowledge-sharing lead the way. We look forward to a path of shared growth, innovation, and success, where our contributions to open standards help shape a more interoperable and dynamic space industry.
Environmental Tests Completed!
November 8, 2023
We are absolutely thrilled to share a monumental milestone that will accelerate ongoing and future conversations with prospective clients: the completion of our rigorous environmental test campaign. This is the battery of tests we ran this year: Proton testing, Total Ionizing Dose, Random vibration, Sinusoidal vibration, Shock, Thermo cycling, Thermo Vacuum, and Burn-in. These tests were designed to simulate the harsh conditions of space and ensure that our technology not only survives, but also operates flawlessly in that extreme environment.
Space Server Technology
August 1, 2023
The ability to store and process data in space is one of the next hot topics for the New Space economy. Grounded in technology we've already developed, our space server technology is emerging way before than that of any other company. Our N10501AV is a server engineered to endure the extreme conditions of the outer space, bringing to space the same level of cloud computing power available on the ground.
LuxSpace Partnership
August 11, 2022
New synergies are surfacing in Luxembourg’s space ecosystem!
We’ve signed an MoU with LuxSpace, an OHB company, to explore new technologies for future space systems. LuxSpace will contribute their vast experience in space missions and Novo will leverage its expertise in high-performance space electronics. We are excited for this new step forward in our Luxembourgish and European plan.

Protecting our technology
March 10, 2021
Protecting our technology is as important as developing it! We are proud to announce that, a
few months back, we filed a provisional patent for one of our key
technologies. We are not protecting a circuit design, as similar functionality can be
achieved with different circuits. What we are protecting is a new architecture that will
allow us to save up to 30% of SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) in future high-performance
redundant space systems. Please, feel free to reach out to learn more about this core
technology.
Novo Space is one of the "cutting-edge AI startups who are revolutionizing industries"
February 19, 2021
We were recently accepted into the
NVIDIA Inception Program
which, in their words, “nurtures cutting-edge AI startups who are revolutionizing
industries”. This is key for us because some of the products in our roadmap will include an
NVIDIA GPU for machine learning in space. The applications in space are unlimited, including
constellation management and collision avoidance, natural disaster monitoring, communication
networks reconfiguration, planet identification, weather monitoring, extreme data
compression, payload data processing, onboard failure detection, sensor data fusion, and
many more. Stay tuned to see how Novo's high-performance products unlock these and other
computer-demanding applications in space.

Critical Design Review
June 24, 2020
We have been working in a project sponsored by
BAE Systems and led by the MIT
STAR lab for almost two years and we are happy to announce that we had our Critical Design
Review (CDR) yesterday! We are very pleased to be working with BAE Systems, developers of
the most successful satellite computer (RAD750), and MIT towards next-gen high-performance
systems. We want to thank
Lin Haas
(BAE Systems) and Prof.
Kerri Cahoy
(MIT) for their leadership in the project. Also, special thanks to
Francesca Scire-Scappuzzo,
Susan Gonzalez,
Michael McComas,
Fang Liu,
Ezinne Uzo-Okoro,
and all other people at BAE Systems and MIT directly involved in the project or cheering
for us in some other way.
Second USAF SBIR Phase I Grant
March 5, 2020
Novo Space has been awarded another USAF SBIR Phase I grant through the
AFWERX program to explore the addition of
novel features and capabilities in the space domain to Novo’s core product offering. The
AFWERX program helps create ground-up innovation across the Air Force by engaging start-ups
and non-traditional organizations.
