We’re launching HELIX Groundkit at Space Tech Expo Bremen 2025

We will officially unveil HELIX® Groundkit, its new ground segment and mission control software, at Space Tech Expo Europe 2025 in Bremen, 18-20 November. The launch marks a significant milestone in our HELIX product suite, expanding its offering to deliver a more complete and integrated software solution for spacecraft development and operations.

Introducing Groundkit: A new approach to mission operations

Designed to simplify the complexities of space mission operations, Groundkit provides a scalable, flexible, and interoperable software framework for managing ground segment activities. The new product complements the existing Flightkit and Ops solutions, bringing together flight and ground software in one cohesive ecosystem.

Built on modern software engineering principles, Groundkit enables spacecraft operators and engineering teams to:

  • Integrate easily with existing mission control systems.
  • Scale operations efficiently as missions evolve or constellations grow.
  • Streamline communication between space and ground segments.
  • Reduce operational overheads through automation and modular architecture.

By introducing Groundkit, we continue to advance our vision of providing end-to-end space operations software that supports customers throughout the full mission lifecycle.

See Groundkit in action at Space Tech Expo Bremen 2025

Visitors to Stand D25 at Space Tech Expo Europe 2025 will be the first to see Groundkit in action. Our technical and commercial teams will be on hand to provide live demonstrations, answer technical questions, and discuss how the full HELIX software suite can help streamline spacecraft development, operations, and scalability.

Sandy Damm, CEO at Bright Ascension, commented: “We’re excited to bring HELIX Groundkit to Space Tech Expo this year. It’s a major step forward in unifying flight and ground systems, giving mission teams the flexibility and control they need to operate efficiently and grow confidently.”
