October 3rd is not just another day. It’s when Argotec's SpacePark opens its gates and welcomes you to experience space like never before. 🛰️ Join us for “Unconventional Orbits”, a side event of the @italiantechweek, in collaboration with Club Silencio. ✨ At 7:00 PM, the stage of SpacePark will welcome voices that challenge conventions: a journey through creativity, passion, boldness, and the drive to push beyond limits. Unconventional Orbits is about giving space to outsiders and celebrating their unique trajectories. 🌌 Earlier that day, from 2:30 PM to 10:30 PM, SpacePark will open its doors to the public with a special Open Day. Visitors will have the rare chance to explore the beating heart of Italian space innovation: from the Clean Room where satellites are built, to the Central Hub, and into the Mission Control Center, where space missions are followed once in orbit. In the coming days we’ll share more details on how to register for the Open Day — stay tuned and follow Argotec’s channels. 👉 But meanwhile, don’t miss your chance to book your seat for the Live Talk, sign up here: luma.com/e2i7umyr

A Date to Remember | LICIACube Deployment Anniversary 🛰️ On this day in 2022, LICIACube, a cubesat no larger than a shoebox, was released from NASA’s DART spacecraft. Its mission? To capture the very first images of humanity’s attempt to change the course of a celestial body — our first cosmic clash with an asteroid ☄️. This mission marked a turning point for planetary defense: proving it’s possible to alter the trajectory of an asteroid millions of kilometers from Earth. A truly historic milestone in space exploration 🌌. Read the full article here: lnkd.in/d2hXRCMM 👉 Want to know more about LICIACube? Visit our website: lnkd.in/dwFQWRHE @ASI_spazio

✨ Wishes in Orbit On the night of June 23ʳᵈ, 2025, as the seven HEO satellites prepared for launch, we gathered at Argotec for a special activity that brought us closer to the satellites — and to each other. Each Argonaut wrote a personal wish on a tag and hung it on our orbital wish tree, sending positive vibes to accompany our satellites into orbit. Because behind every satellite, there’s a team with passion — and behind every mission, a shared vision. 🚀 Swipe through to see some of the wishes we sent to space — now it’s your turn! What would you wish for HEO? Drop it in the comments and send your message into orbit with us.👇 🌐 Want to know more about HEO? Visit our website!

🌍 We believe in a place where every voice is heard and valued. That’s why we’re proud to announce that, for the second year in a row, we have been certified under the UNI/PdR 125:2022 – Gender Equality Management System. This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to building an inclusive environment where there is space for everyone — with no exceptions. Thank you to the entire Argotec team for making this possible. 🚀

A bold step beyond Earth 🌍🚀 On June 23rd, we witnessed history as seven HEO satellites lifted off into space — a remarkable milestone for Italy, Europe, and our team. From the excitement of the countdown to the roar of liftoff, this mission marks a new chapter in advanced satellite engineering and orbital innovation. Thank you to everyone who joined us and supported this unforgettable moment. Relive the magic in our recap video 🎥👇 HEO Constellation, part of the @IrideSpazio — Earth Observation program, funded by PNRR funds and developed by the @esa in collaboration with the @ASI_spazio, initiated by the @Palazzo_Chigi @EU_Commission - @ItaliaDomaniGov

Our CEO @DavidAvinoIT and Annagiulia Cester, Mission Planning Operations Engineer at Argotec, appeared on TG3 Pixel to highlight the advanced capabilities of our HEO satellites, part of the @IrideSpazio, which process images directly on board, enabling near real-time monitoring of the Earth’s surface. This technology is essential for tracking environmental changes and helping to prevent and respond to natural disasters such as wildfires and melting glaciers. Discover more about HEO on our website!

Behind every mission, there are people who choose to believe before anyone else. They imagined the future — and then built it. A shared dream, sleepless nights, and teamwork: all to create a new constellation to protect and better understand our Earth. 🛰️ HEO is not just a satellite program. It’s a human story of courage, vision, and a team that chose to stay, to return, and to build — right here. Let’s celebrate these values together! 🎥 Watch the story behind HEO: where space technology meets human ambition.
