Southampton Space Institute

A towering satellite dish positioned in a wide, grassy field, silhouetted against a vivid orange sunset sky, with a winding dirt road leading toward it.

The Southampton Space Institute brings together world-leading elements of several research groups. We develop ground-breaking space-based technologies to address a range of real-world needs, to deliver scientific breakthroughs, and to drive domestic and international policy action.
