Vyoma awarded ESA data procurement contract for space-based data on small space debris24.2.2026 10:53:34 CET | Press release

(Munich, February 24th, 2026) Vyoma, a Munich-based company providing Space Domain Awareness (SDA) capabilities, has been selected as the winner of the ESA tender on ”Data Procurement for Space-Based Statistical Data on Small Space Debris Phase 1”, funded via ESA‘s Space Safety Programme (S2P). ESA’s Meteoroid And Space debris Terrestrial Environment Reference (MASTER) model provides a description of the space environment around Earth, supporting satellite designers, operators and others with risk assessments. Currently, there exists a significant temporal and spatial knowledge gap for observations of space debris with sizes smaller than the detection limit of ground-based sensors. Vyoma's Flamingo-1 satellite is ideally positioned to generate the image data ESA is seeking. Flying “in-situ” at an altitude of 510 km, Flamingo-1's instrument can monitor large volumes of space at once. This sensor detects objects at long and short distances and captures small and fast objects reliably, im

Clean energy needs a clean planet: PLAN-B NET ZERO and everwave launch joint initiative20.2.2026 13:26:02 CET | Press release

(Berlin, Germany) A strong start to 2026. PLAN-B NET ZERO enters into a partnership with the Aachen-based environmental scale-up everwave. With the guiding principle ‘1 euro = 1 kilogram of waste’, the partners recovered 10,000 kilograms of waste from rivers in Cambodia at the start of the initiative Around 11 million tonnes of plastic waste enter the oceans every year. Without effective countermeasures, this volume could almost triple by 2040. Studies show that about 80 percent of marine plastic reaches the sea via roughly 1,656 rivers worldwide. To date, everwave has removed more than 2.4 million kilograms of plastic from rivers in Cambodia, Albania, and Thailand. The company uses waste collection boats, barriers, and manual cleanups to stop plastic before it reaches the oceans. At the same time, mobile sorting and recycling solutions return materials efficiently to the circular economy. AI support optimizes collection routes to clean as many waterways as possible in a sustainable wa
