Dublin, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Space Robotics Market Outlook 2025-2034: Market Share, and Growth Analysis By Solution, By Application, By End-User” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The space robotics market is projected to double in value from USD 6.6 billion in 2025 to USD 13.2 billion by 2034, driven by a CAGR of 8.1%. It is a critical component of space exploration, satellite servicing, and deep-space missions. Space robotics encompasses technologies capable of autonomous or remote operations, assisting in satellite repairs, space debris removal, and robotic exploration of distant planets and moons. These advanced systems withstand harsh space conditions and have traditionally been employed in space stations for tasks like robotic arm operations.
As the space industry expands commercially and endeavors to explore the Moon, Mars, and beyond, the demand for sophisticated robotic systems will accelerate. These robots are pivotal for satellite deployment, maintenance, and the creation of space-based infrastructure, such as lunar bases and asteroid mining operations. Investment in autonomous systems aims to reduce human involvement while boosting mission capabilities and safety.
In 2024, the market witnessed significant growth, fueled by autonomous robotic systems for satellite servicing and exploration. Key contributions came from NASA’s Artemis program and other interplanetary missions. Commercial entities like Astrobotic and SpaceX are increasing their focus on lunar missions, deploying autonomous robots for resource extraction and infrastructure construction. Notably, companies like Astroscale made strides in debris-removal technology, demonstrating the capability of autonomous space cleanup.
AI-driven systems have become integral to space robotics, enabling robots to process real-time data and make decisions independently. This innovation signifies a vital year for space robotics, emphasizing future space exploration, sustainability, and commercialization. Autonomous systems were spotlighted, with rising investments in robotics startups and collaborations aiming to develop adaptable and functional robotic platforms.
Looking forward, technological advancements and increased mission complexity are expected to propel the space robotics market rapidly, with a focus on AI and machine learning integration. As automation lessens the reliance on human crews, robotics will be instrumental in constructing off-Earth infrastructure, including lunar bases and space hotels, and facilitating interplanetary travel. Autonomous robots will partake in deep-space exploration, scientific research, and resource mining with minimal human oversight.
The burgeoning sector of space tourism will also witness increased robotic application, aiding crew and passenger operations. Space debris removal remains crucial as satellite constellations proliferate, raising debris risk. As missions to the Moon and Mars advance, space robotics will be fundamental for infrastructure maintenance and long-duration human missions. However, challenges such as cost, regulatory frameworks, and system reliability must be navigated for widespread market adoption.
