InnaLabs were proud to be in attendance at the Irish Space Technology Showcase at Enterprise Ireland HQ in Dublin. The event was brought together by Enterprise Ireland and IDA Ireland, and was directly supported by the European Space Agency. 

Innalab's have designed and manufactured the ARIETIS-NS gyroscope navigation system for a European Space Agency "HERA" SpaceX launch. The launch is integral to guiding the satellite towards the Didymos asteroid system. 

Innalabs are delighted to have our ARIETIS-NS gyroscope navigation system on board the European Space Agency ‘HERA’ journey into the stars, which will act as an integral part of guiding the satellite towards the Didymos asteroid system for its mission. ESA's ‘HERA’ Spacecraft is set to launch on the 7th of October 2024 on a SpaceX Falcon 9 from Cape Canaveral, Florida, USA. 

InnaLabs® are proudly looking onward to October 2024, where a critical moment in the history of our ARIETIS-NS gyroscope system will take place. The ‘HERA’ mission from the European Space Agency is set to blast off in just 3 months from now, a mission that comes following years of extensive planning and development to get to this very moment. Our state-of-the-art 3-Axis Rad Tolerant Gyroscope System is no exception to this.

The ARIETIS-NS itself arrived after years of internal development at InnaLabs®. A dream to craft a highly flexible, low-cost, low-mass gyroscope system that could be customized to fit whichever specific needs and specifications were needed of it was finally realized in the summer of 2023 after years of tireless work to see that dream finally realized. 

With the growing demand for launching new satellite constellations and the expansion of New Space projects, it is becoming increasingly important to select the right components for these missions. These components need to be not only robust and reliable to endure the harsh environment of launch and orbit, but also cost-effective to facilitate building satellites in volume. 

InnaLabs® offers a solution to this problem: CVG New Space, a tried and tested Coriolis Vibratory Gyroscope with over 2.5M hours in space with no failure or degradation of performance.

On International Asteroid Day we wanted to reflect on what asteroids are, why space-based observation and probe missions are so important, and how InnaLabs is contributing to scientific missions to study asteroids.
We hope that the below article will help you learn more about the topic.

InnaLabs® is pleased to announce that our gyros reached 2,500,000 hours operation in orbit.

76 gyros in 19 satellites - with some units operation for almost 6 years - fly with no failure or degradation of performance, showing the robustness of our CVG technology to the space environment.

InnaLabs® has been awarded the contract for the European Space Agency (ESA) Copernicus LSTM Science mission (Land Surface Temperature Monitoring), with Airbus Defence & Space (ADS) selected as the prime contractor. This is another success for ARIETIS, which is being developed in Blanchardstown West Dublin. The purpose of this mission is to respond to priority requirements of the agricultural user community for improving sustainable agricultural productivity at field-scale in a world of increasing water scarcity and variability.

Dublin, Ireland., 15th September 2020 - InnaLabs® is delighted to announce that ARIETIS-NS, a Rad-Tolerant Gyro System has been selected by the European Space Agency (ESA), OHB and GMV for Hera; A Planetary Defence Mission to support deep-space navigation.  The contract was signed at ESA’s ESOC centre in Germany, by Franco Ongaro, ESA Director of Technology, Engineering and Quality, and Marco Fuchs, CEO of Germany space company OHB.
