ESA's 2026 budget is 8.26 billion euros, with 56% allocated to Earth observation, navigation, and secure communications.

48 Earth observation satellites are scheduled for launch in 2026, up from 22 in 2025, under ESA's management.

ELC Stage 2 requires rockets to complete first orbital flights by end of 2027, with contracts awarded post-evaluation.

Eutelsat ordered 340 OneWeb Gen 1 satellites from Airbus, with launches starting in 2026 to replace older spacecraft.

OneWeb's constellation consists of approximately 640 satellites operating at 1,200 kilometers altitude, with 44 gateway stations expected operational by 2026.

Eutelsat's ground network sale-and-leaseback agreement involves 1,400 antennas across 100+ locations, with expected proceeds of 500 million euros.

Eutelsat plans to grow revenue to 1.6 billion euros by 2029, driven by OneWeb LEO constellation demand.

Eutelsat has 100 OneWeb Gen 1 replacements on order with Airbus Defence and Space, with 340 more to follow.

Iris2 multi-orbit constellation investment estimated at 2 billion euros, with detailed plans submitted to the European Commission.

Eutelsat's Konnect VHTS satellite provides 500 Gbps capacity in GEO at 2.7 degrees east for Ukraine's broadband needs.

Eutelsat requires 44 gateway Earth stations for OneWeb global coverage, with three stations operational by late 2026 in Senegal, Tanzania, and Marshall Islands.

Eutelsat's 10-year, billion-euro contract with the French Defense Ministry includes OneWeb capacity, influencing other European defense agencies.

Iris2 is a multi-orbit secure connectivity network with a 12-year concession involving Eutelsat, SES, and Hispasat.

The EU Space Act could be adopted in 2027 and take effect in 2030, impacting global space operations.

The European Commission and ESA will invest 7 billion euros into Iris2, while SpaceRise members finance 4 billion euros.

Spain's ESA contribution increased to 1.85 billion euros, accounting for 8.44% of ESA's budget over the next three years.

Spain committed 138.01 million euros to the LEO-PNT program for alternative positioning and navigation signals.

Spain's Hispasat is part of the Iris2 multi-orbit secure connectivity constellation, focusing on low-LEO technology demonstration.

Amazon Leo plans to deploy 1,436 satellites by July 31, 2026, as part of a 2,232-satellite constellation.

Amazon Leo will utilize Ariane 64, New Glenn, and Vulcan Centaur rockets for increased launch cadence in 2026.

The network will feature 300 gateway Earth stations, primarily near AWS facilities, to reduce latency to approximately 10 milliseconds.
