B2Space, a European leader in high altitude operations, has successfully demonstrated its stratospheric capabilities at our ATLAS Alpha flight centre, deploying its comprehensive Aereal Imager solution, designed for emergency and territory management.
ATLAS and CATEC have been present and participated in the X Conference on Technologies and Solutions for Industrial Automation (JAI 2025), promoted by the School of Industrial Engineering of Vigo, which brought together in the Galician city world experts in robotics, cybersecurity and AI.
The meeting focused on the joint development of aerospace technologies, oriented to unmanned autonomous vehicles, as well as technologies oriented to anti-drone systems and the possibility of analyzing and experimenting these developments in the ATLAS facilities in Villacarrillo.
The Diputación of Jaén, through the Instituto de Estudios Giennenses (IEG), will finance 22 studies related to natural sciences and technology with 85,000 euros, all of them with a common link: the interest for the province of Jaén. These include a joint project between the Advanced Centre for Aerospace Technologies (CATEC) and the University of Jaén to implement an efficient system for measuring radio frequency antenna specifications using drones at the ATLAS experimental flight field.
This week, we had an interesting visit to the ATLAS facility. Our staff received a group of eight people from Rwanda, made up of key players in the drone industry in this African country, including regulators, implementers, managers, designers and members of the private sector.
The ATLAS flight centres, belonging to CATEC, have launched a new turnkey service for the validation of systems on aerial platforms, unique in the sector.
CATEC and B2SPACE have signed a collaboration agreement by which both entities will promote the activity of the space industry through the validation of test flights and equipment in near-space conditions and destined for orbit through the use of the Near Space Testing platform, developed by B2SPACE, which will be tested in the ATLAS flight centres, belonging to CATEC.
