We are progressively developing a spaceport in Mali and supporting the emergence of an African space sector, from launch to orbit — driven by engineering, solar energy and research.
A.I.S.C Space Exploration Technologies SA is a company registered in Mali, committed to the development of the African space industry. Its ambition is to strengthen the upstream segment of the space value chain through the progressive deployment of a spaceport in Mali, designed to foster the emergence of African launch and space-access capabilities.
We also offer consulting services in the midstream domain, along with engineering, mission design and space systems services. Through its activities, the company aims to contribute to opening Africa to the new space economy and to building a sustainable technological, industrial and scientific ecosystem.
From launch infrastructure to the energy that powers it, AISC is building the foundations of an integrated African space sector.
Progressive deployment of launch infrastructure in Mali to open up autonomous access to space for Africa: launch of spacecraft, satellites and orbital vehicles.
Strategic consulting, engineering, and design of missions and space systems to support public and private players in the sector.
Design and manufacture of aircraft, launchers, satellites and probes, as well as maintenance and repair of aircraft and spacecraft.
Design, assembly and deployment of photovoltaic cells and solar power plants, built to support the energy supply of space infrastructure and local communities.
Development of research environments close to real conditions for the study of botany and plant growth in a space context.
Beyond launch infrastructure, AISC is working on the deployment of solar power plants dedicated to powering space activities, and aims to offer a near-real environment for space botany research.
Through these three pillars — access to space, energy and research — AISC intends to contribute to building a sustainable technological, industrial and scientific ecosystem for the benefit of the African continent.
