Irish-built navigation tech heads to space with Airbus satellite launch

Blanchardstown-based Innalabs will see its ARIETIS-NS navigation system launched into orbit aboard an Arianespace Vega-C rocket. The system is critical to the functioning of Airbus’ next-gen CO3D satellites, a flagship project with the French Space Agency. ARIETIS-NS provides radiation-hardened, precision inertial navigation to support satellite stability and control—cementing Ireland’s growing footprint in advanced space engineering.
