Abstract: Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) is crucial for humanity’s future in space, driving advancements in Earth observation, exploration, and commercialization. This chapter examines the evolving space sector, highlighting how AI enhances satellite data analysis, improves space operations, and supports commercial activities like space mining and microgravity manufacturing. AI’s ability to process vast amounts of data and make autonomous decisions is essential for managing satellites, predicting maintenance needs, and navigating hazards. This chapter also discusses emerging use cases, such as creating AI-driven digital twins of Earth for better environmental monitoring and decision-making. With AI’s help, space technologies promise to revolutionize life on Earth, change the way industries operate, and ensure global security.
