Highlights - Interim Report 202 3
CEO, Thomas A. E. Andersen, states:
“ Danish Astronaut Andreas Mogensen's Huginn mission to the International Space Station marks the beginning of a particularly exciting opportunity for Danish Aerospace. During his six-month stay in orbit, Andreas will be among the first to use our new FERGO ergometer built for NASA and launched to the ISS in early August. Andreas will also be helping demonstrate three new technologies developed by Danish Aerospace to monitor human health, add virtual reality to in-space exercise sessions and improve on-orbit water recycling capabilities. These new technologies have considerable potential for use on future space missions as well as in extreme terrestrial environments.
This is an extremely busy and rewarding period for Danish Aerospace during which we also have been manufacturing our exercise equipment for government and industry customers while at the same time launching new equipment and technology demonstrations into space. ”
Management review
During the spring of 2023 DAC had the first of three sets of hardware for Andreas Mogensen Huginn' mission Launched on SpaceX-28. In early August, the first of the new NASA FERGO exercise ergometers, which DAC has built for NASA, was launched to ISS. This will be accompanied by a second FERGO to be launched later in the year.
DAC is already seeing an increase in interest from other potential users of the DAC technologies which will be tested on Andreas Mogensen's long duration spaceflight this year. These new technologies target both the new growing commercial human spaceflight market. They also have promising applications in extreme environments on earth.
During his six-month mission on the International Space Station Andreas Mogensen will test the company's Wearable technology in space, demonstrate the use of Virtual Reality with DAC's exercise equipment and test our water purification technologies developed together with Aquaporin Space Alliance ApS. These newly developed capabilities are closely aligned to DAC's long-term business strategy.
ESA and DAC have signed the Novation agreement passing over the Gaintex contract from the former Ohmatex to DAC. DAC is now awaiting the associated Contract Change Notice from ESA to initiate and execute this new project.
DAC has also continued its work on internal development and European Defense Fund projects involving wearable sensors for health monitoring of navy divers and for the training of military personnel and others operating in other extreme environments on Earth.
In the first half of 2023, DAC again passed the quality audit, which is the company's AS/EN9100 standard, rev. D quality control system approval by Bureau Veritas.
