Space Cluster | Harwell

Today, the Harwell Space Cluster forms an integral part of the UK’s space sector and has grown into a dynamic, enterprising ecosystem of 105 space organisations employing over 1,400 people. At the gravitational heart of our cluster is RAL Space. With more than 50 years of expertise, it has flown over 210 instruments into space, including the Gaia Spacecraft, surveying a billion stars in our galaxy since 2013. The European Space Agency (ESA) established a major hub for satellite communications here in 2009. Other core organisations include the UK Space Agency, the ESA Business Incubation Centre, the Satellite Applications Catapult, and Astroscale – a leading company tackling the critical problem of space debris. Whether it’s around funding space research or sending kit into space, our focus on inward investment also attracts a whole range of organisations, from small businesses and young start-ups to multinational aerospace companies like Airbus and Lockheed Martin. Over the last decade, companies like Oxford Space Systems (OSS) have grown from start-up to major producer of lightweight satellite hardware structures.
