5M is developing a flexible solar panel with a higher energy output and lower weight compared to fixed panels. These panels will be used primarily in telecommunications satellites in geostationary orbit, but their applications are broad, including navigation and observation satellites, space travel and scientific missions. The flexible part of the panel is made from 5M's thin composites, while the rigid part combines lightweight alloys and rigid composite structures.

The European Space Agency's (ESA) new Comet Interceptor mission will study a previously undiscovered comet, with the aim of uncovering crucial insights into the origins of our Solar System. The Brno-based OHB Czechspace is playing a major engineering role in the probe, which will fly into space in 2029.

In early May 2024, a G5 geomagnetic storm hit Earth, causing significant aurora and disruption to the power grid, communications and GPS. The storm also affected Starlink users. Radiation monitors from ADVACAM are being tested on the ISS, which could be installed and operated by a Czech astronaut in the future. This research could improve space weather forecasts and increase the safety of crews and satellites. ADVACAM and Czech industry are thus making a significant contribution to radiation protection and advanced radiation monitors.

The PLATO mission will focus on the study of terrestrial-type planets in the habitable zone around Sun-like stars and on the seismic activity of the stars, which will allow precise characterisation of the stars, including the determination of their ages. The satellite will be equipped with 26 cameras and is the third medium-class mission in ESA's Cosmic Vision programme. 5M has developed composite panels for the service module, which are now being integrated at SAB Aerospace. The mission is scheduled for launch in 2026.

ADVACAM's new technology predicts cosmic weather, warning against increased solar activity that can endanger astronauts and satellite electronics. The MiniPIX SPACE particle counting camera, derived from CERN's LHC research, identifies particle types, energy, and direction, unmatched by other space dosimeters. With 14 detectors on the ISS and use by NASA's Orion and OneWeb, the camera will monitor lunar Gateway radiation. It enables adaptive protective measures, cosmic weather forecasts, and satellite constellation warnings, enhancing mission safety.
