Newsletter #7, December 2024

Another Circle Around the Sun

With the closing of 2024 just a few hours away from this newsletter, let us contemplate for a moment on what we as community have achieved this year. It is through the dedication and enthusiasm of all of you that gave the LibreCube developments such a strong push forward!

The space industry has become increasingly dominated by a handful of monopolistic leaders, whose proprietary technologies and closed systems concentrate power and stifle broader innovation. To counter this imbalance, LibreCube, Libre Space Foundation, and other non-profit organizations and individuals in the space domain advocate for an alternative that embraces the ethos of open-source development.

Open-source principles in space exploration and technology can democratize access, enabling a more diverse range of contributors to collaborate on solving humanity’s most pressing challenges. By fostering transparency, sharing knowledge, and encouraging global cooperation, an open-source approach ensures that space becomes a domain for collective progress, not just the playground of the few. Let us rally behind this vision to unlock the true potential of human ingenuity in the exploration and utilization of space.

Enjoy the time off and recharge your batteries!
Stay tuned for the next newsletter in January where we will roll out the plans for 2025. Lot's of even greater developments are around the corner!

Till then, have a good time!
