DESCRIPTION
The project aims for a decentralized autonomous organization for Earth orbitoperations
named “Space DAO” based on blockchain consensus mechanisms.
Earth’s Orbit is populated by satellites and other assets from all governments. Currently,
decisions regarding satellites and spacecraft operations are made by a very limited number
of entities. The rigid governance
of the centralized information in space is leading to delays, errors, and potential safety
hazards.
The main Idea is to implement a decentralised market place where CDM (Conjunction
Data Message, similar to collision predictions) providers and data processing contributors
can interact
seamlessly without need for a trusted central authority to validate conjunction alerts and
reach consensus on collisions probabilities and orbit maneuvers.
Core of the project is to initiate Space DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization that
democratizes access to space by leveraging blockchain technology. It is planed to be an
open-source platform that connects satellite operators, ground station owners, and data
buyers in a peer-to-peer network, allowing them to transact directly with each other
without the need for intermediaries.
