Asteroid probe lifted off into space from Cape Canaveral on 7 October at 16:52 CEST and now on her way to the double asteroid system Didymos / Dimorphos. OHB System AG, a subsidiary of the space and technology group OHB SE, has developed, built, and tested the asteroid probe on behalf of the European Space Agency (ESA) in only four years.
Automotive goes to space: OHB System AG, a subsidiary of the space technology group OHB SE, has been awarded a contract by the European Space Agency (ESA) as prime contractor for the “V2X (vehicle-to-everything) - services demonstration over satellite” project, with support from the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
OHB SE ("OHB"), the German space and technology company, announces that the takeover offer ("offer") by KKR will be completed now that all offer conditions have been met. All regulatory approvals have been granted. As the next step, KKR will pay the offer consideration in accordance with the terms of the offer document by no later than September 9, 2024.
Successful lift-off for the "Arctic Weather Satellite" (AWS): The new weather satellite was launched on a Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, USA. Shortly afterwards, it sent its first signal from space. OHB Sweden, a subsidiary of the space and technology group OHB SE, had developed and built the satellite on behalf of the European Space Agency ESA.
OHB and numerous other players in the European space industry signed the Zero Debris Charter for the avoidance of space debris at the ILA in Berlin today.
OHB System AG has been selected as the main partner of Spanish space company GMV for the development and assembly of four satellites and the associated payloads for the LEO-PNT navigation satellite programme.
Through the GTIF initiative ESA aims to create innovative capabilities that combine Earth observation data with modern analytics and cloud computing technologies to address Green Transition related information needs as expressed by regional stakeholders.
Representatives of the project partners who designed and developed the scientific instrument for PLATO attended a conference in Oberpfaffenhofen to celebrate the start of integration activities in OHB's latest ISO 5 clean room.
The war in Ukraine, the climate crisis and rising political tensions worldwide are increasing the need for the European Union to underpin its decision-making with high-quality, exclusive and reliable information.
European Space Agency ESA relies on OHB's high level of expertise in the development of Earth observation satellites: The view from space is crucial for observing our blue planet even more closely to obtain more precise data for tackling climate change as well as for monitoring and mapping the Earth's surface. Therefore, work is already underway to develop the next generation of Sentinel-2 satellites for the European Earth observation programme Copernicus.
