About this report
In an unassuming corner of Bavaria, a young startup is quietly developing technology that could redefine how Europe operates in orbit. Starflight Dynamics (SFDY), founded in 2023 and based near Munich, is building “green” water-fueled propulsion systems and orbital manufacturing platforms . This deep-tech venture isn’t chasing the usual commercial space trends.
Instead, it targets the strategic high ground: enabling satellites to maneuver actively using non-toxic water propellant, and manufacturing advanced materials in microgravity for next-generation chips . These twin capabilities—agile orbital propulsion and in-space semiconductor fabrication—have significant implications.
Key questions this report answers
- What are SFDY's water-fuelled green propulsion systems and orbital manufacturing platforms, and how do they let satellites maneuver and fabricate materials in microgravity?
- What is the readiness of these twin capabilities and their fit with European space-autonomy programmes?
- Which partners and markets could use non-toxic water propulsion and in-space semiconductor fabrication?
- What capability gaps and dependencies face this 2023 Munich-based startup?
