Among the oldest players in the space conquest, we have the United States (NASA), Russia (Roscosmos) and Europe (ESA). Alongside them are the newcomers there is China (CNSA), India (ISRO), Canada (CSA), Japan (JAXA) and the United Arab Emirates (UAE SA), in search of international recognition and new levers of growth and expenditure. 

But for some years now, space exploration is also done by a multitude of private companies. In view of the effervescence observed in recent years, we are probably at the dawn of a new space era. The main interested parties talk about space tourism, colonizing Mars or exploring interstellar waste. 

This thematic list aims to identify listed companies involved in space activities such as the creation of reusable rockets, satellite launches, production of drones and other orbital and sub-orbital aircraft, 3D printing and embedded technologies for space objects. These innovations are well on their way to revolutionizing space observation and exploration, logistics, transportation, telecommunications, and could even send humans to Mars.
