Final Thoughts and Vision for 2026

A new frontier for AI  

We’re celebrating the efforts of our 2024 AI research cycle by reflecting on what it takes to push the envelope in space exploration and research.  

AI is no-longer an academic curiosity. We’re now in the era where this transformative new tool is now making substantive contributions to both space exploration and how we protect our planet. 

However, the shift from a cool demo to something we can trust requires a new level of rigor and engineering excellence. 

Fortunately, we can learn from the very same principles that got humanity to the Moon and back safely to Earth. These stringent standards of engineering excellence are what we have been striving for at FDL-X Heliolab in partnership with NASA, Google Cloud, NVIDIA and Pasteur Labs. 

You can watch the different teams presentations bellow.
