CSA – Constellation Sustainability Assessment
- In partnership with Apogeo Space
- In collaboration with Spinlife (Spin-off Università di Padova)
- Supported by SMACT Competence Center

Real-time environmental monitoring of a live satellite constellation, from design to end-of-life, finally made operational.
Advanced tools are enabling real-time monitoring of the environmental impact of satellite constellations, analyzing the full life cycle of a satellite with scientific precision, measuring the real impact every mission has on our planet’s resources.
Working alongside Apogeo Space, together with the Spinlife team and the support of SMACT Competence Center, we moved from methodology to execution, applying LCA-based analysis directly to an operational constellation, turning sustainability assessment from a theoretical exercise into a measurable, data-driven process. Through the CSA project, we developed a quantitative framework that helps companies become more competitive, comply with emerging European regulations and access targeted ESG funding.
This milestone paves the way for a space sector that is increasingly digital, responsible and transparent.
“The CSA project proved that it is technically feasible to quantify the environmental footprint of a satellite constellation using real mission data, not estimates, not proxies. That’s the level of rigour the industry needs to move forward responsibly.”
