A Look Back at Everything We Built
From a blank repository in February to a comprehensive space intelligence platform by August: 250+ original articles, 400+ pages and tools, a live satellite tracker, a real jobs board with 6,500+ listings, and a weekly data brief — built in public, one wave at a time.
This page is about the platform, not the industry. For the space industry's year, the live 2026 launch count is on Launch Cadence and the 2025 reference figures are on Industry Stats.
SpaceNexus launched as the first free, comprehensive space intelligence platform. Company profiles, satellite tracking, launch manifests, market intelligence, and news aggregation went live from day one.
Original long-form content covering every corner of the space industry: from CubeSats and mega-constellations to space ETFs, ITAR compliance, and career guides. The largest free space content library on the internet.
Real-time SpaceX launch and vehicle data, 8 curated podcast feeds from top space industry shows, and NASA Earth Observatory Natural Event Tracker integration for monitoring wildfires, storms, and volcanic activity from orbit.
Automated detection and embedding of live launch coverage from YouTube and X (Twitter). When a rocket is on the pad, SpaceNexus finds the stream and brings it to you in real time.
Community forums, B2B marketplace with RFQ system, developer API portal, engineering calculators (link budget, power budget, radiation, thermal), deal rooms, investment tools, procurement intelligence, and more.
Wall-to-wall coverage of the first crewed lunar flyby since Apollo: livestream embeds at the top of the site, a running live blog through launch and splashdown, and a permanent mission archive after the crew returned home on April 10.
The Enterprise tier was retired and every paywalled module — AI reports, compliance suite, patents, procurement, API access, custom dashboards, webhooks — now unlocks with a single Professional plan. Recruitment pages became fully public.
A full information-architecture audit collapsed ~50 duplicate pages into dense survivors with 72 verified redirects, rebuilt the navigation from 174 links to 42 curated ones, and promoted the live CelesTrak-powered satellite tracker (10,000+ objects, 30-second refresh) to the main /satellites page.
The jobs board switched to live hiring data: daily syncs from 16 verified company ATS boards (SpaceX, Anduril, Rocket Lab, Planet, Vast, Stoke, and more) via Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby APIs — 6,300+ real listings on the first production sync, with expired postings automatically retired.
The State of the Space Economy brief now auto-publishes every Monday from our own tracked data. The /status page became genuine live monitoring of database and cron-fleet health, and Google and Microsoft OAuth sign-in shipped alongside major page-weight reductions.
Every number below represents real, shipped product built from scratch since February 2026 — audited August 2026 and rounded down to what we can defend.

A roadmap check-in: what we promised in the spring, what has shipped since, and what comes next.
Shipped: the AI Insights hub publishes editorial analysis grounded in our tracked news, and the State of the Space Economy data brief — built entirely from platform data — now goes out every Monday.
Shipped: structured space-industry data via authenticated v1 API endpoints with API keys and a developer portal — now included with the single Professional plan.
The installable PWA with offline support is live today. Native iOS and Android apps with push notifications for launches and breaking news remain on the roadmap.
Shared workspaces, team dashboards, and collaborative deal rooms for analysts, investors, and engineering teams working together on space projects.
SpaceNexus is free to use and built for space professionals. Create your account and get access to 400+ pages of data, tools, and content today.
SpaceNexus is independently built and operated. All platform statistics reflect production data as of August 2026.
