Our Goals

Our mission is to make the Czech Republic one of the leading forces in the space industry. In OHB Czechspace, we believe that giving the Czech Republic access to space will bring technological and economic benefits to all its citizens.

Our work helps to solve fundamental issues of science and society. Whether we participate in the planetary defense mission Hera, exoplanet research PLATO or the measurement of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere CO2M.

In 2022, OHB Czechspace was awarded a contract by ESA for the Czech satellite mission SOVA to conduct the first phase of the Ambitious Project.

With a customer base of space agencies and companies from the space industry, our focus is to supply spacecraft and launcher structures as well as its mechanical ground support equipment.
