Excited to announce that our CEO James Palmer will be speaking at the upcoming Australian Space Summit & Exhibition 2026 in June.
Over the past few years, this journey has taken SCA from Cape York to NASA Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia, working alongside incredible people across industry, government, defence, science and engineering.
What started as a vision to help build Australia’s future in space has now evolved into international programs spanning:
🚀 Airborne science missions
🌏 Sovereign space capability
✈️ Advanced aerospace systems
🛰️ NASA-linked operations in the USA
🤖 AI-enabled mission technologies through ASTRIS-AI
We are looking forward to sharing more about where the industry is heading, the opportunities ahead for Australia, and why we still strongly believe Australia can play a major role in the future global space economy.

Thank you to J.P. Morgan and Fairfax County Economic Development Authority for the invitation and evening event at the National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center
The global conversation around space is changing rapidly.
Across the United States, industry, Government, Defence and capital markets are now openly discussing the need to not only accelerate but significantly scale up investment into sovereign space capability, commercial infrastructure, national security integration and advanced aerospace systems.
Events and policy discussions across Washington D.C., Wall Street and the wider US space ecosystem continue to reinforce a common theme investing in America’s space superiority through commercial capability, industrial growth, allied partnerships and operational readiness. At a time where commentary around parts of the Australian space sector has focused on contraction and retrenchment, the international environment is moving in the opposite direction.
This is not the time for Australia to step back from space capability.
It is the time to align with trusted partners, accelerate sovereign capability development and position Australian industry within the broader allied space ecosystem.
At Space Centre Australia LLC and Space Centre Australia, we continue to see strong long-term value in:
Airborne science and aerospace operations
Dual-use aerospace capability
Sovereign infrastructure
Responsive launch systems
International collaboration
Science, defence and commercial integration
The global space economy is entering a new phase driven by capability, resilience and strategic relevance. The nations and companies that continue building during uncertainty are likely to define the next generation of space leadership.
