Space biodiversity preservation involves efforts to safeguard and sustain a wide range of biological species in extraterrestrial settings, such as space stations or other planetary bodies. This field focuses on understanding how life adapts in space and creating methods to support ecosystems beyond Earth. These efforts are crucial for extended space missions and the future colonization of other planets.
The key technologies used in space biodiversity preservation include cryopreservation, seed banking, genetic engineering, and more. Cryopreservation is the technique of maintaining the viability of living cells, tissues, or organs by storing them at extremely low temperatures, often with liquid nitrogen. These technologies are applied in areas such as space exploration, planetary settlement, scientific research, and development, and are used by a range of end-users including governmental organizations, private space enterprises, and research bodies.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp hike in U.S. tariffs and the associated trade disputes in spring 2025 are notably impacting the aerospace and defense sector by raising costs for titanium, carbon fiber composites, and avionics materials largely sourced from global suppliers. Defense contractors, locked into fixed-price government contracts, absorb these added costs, while commercial aerospace firms face airline pushback on higher aircraft prices. Delays in component shipments due to customs bottlenecks further disrupt tight production schedules for jets and satellites. The industry is responding by stockpiling critical materials, seeking waivers for defense-related imports, and collaborating with allied nations to diversify supply chain.
The space biodiversity preservation market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides space biodiversity preservation market statistics, including space biodiversity preservation industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a space biodiversity preservation market share, detailed space biodiversity preservation market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the space biodiversity preservation industry. This space biodiversity preservation market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The space biodiversity preservation market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.02 billion in 2024 to $3.34 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6%. The growth during the historical period can be credited to the rising number of space missions, increased investment in biotechnology research, expanding international partnerships, enhanced satellite remote sensing capabilities, and growing emphasis on planetary protection.
The space biodiversity preservation market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.94 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increased government funding, the expansion of space-based seed banks, a surge in international agreements, growing research in space agriculture, and the rise of citizen science initiatives. Key trends expected during this period include progress in technology, improvements in remote sensing systems, the integration of artificial intelligence, advancements in satellite network technology, and the development of microgravity research platforms.
Rising investments in space missions are contributing to the growth of the space biodiversity preservation market. These missions, conducted beyond Earth's atmosphere using spacecraft or satellites, are aimed at exploration, research, and technological progress. The surge in funding is driven by the pursuit of advanced technologies that enhance national security, scientific discovery, and economic potential. This increased investment supports space biodiversity preservation by enabling the development of technologies and habitats essential for protecting and studying life in extraterrestrial environments. For example, in March 2024, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), a U.S.-based independent agency, reported that its budget is projected to grow from $25.384 billion in 2024 to $26.40 billion in 2027. As a result, the rising investments in space missions are fostering the expansion of the space biodiversity preservation market.
Leading companies in the space biodiversity preservation sector are concentrating on the development of advanced technologies, such as high-definition hyperspectral cameras, to improve ecosystem monitoring and conservation efforts. These cameras capture data across hundreds to thousands of narrow spectral bands, surpassing traditional RGB and multispectral sensors in capability. In August 2024, Lemu, a technology company based in Chile, launched Lemu Nge, a 6U hyperspectral nanosatellite specifically designed to monitor Earth's biodiversity. Equipped with a high-definition hyperspectral camera, it delivers over 20 times the resolution of conventional Earth observation satellites, enabling in-depth analysis of vegetation and land cover. Operating in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), it gathers crucial data on ecosystems, land use, and species distribution, supporting global biodiversity conservation initiatives.
In March 2025, Wyvern, a space data company based in Canada, partnered with Lemu to strengthen environmental monitoring through the use of advanced satellite imagery. This collaboration focuses on developing innovative solutions that allow organizations to utilize high-quality satellite data to enhance sustainability decision-making. The partnership is expected to improve the effectiveness and impact of environmental monitoring and management efforts. Lemu is a nature intelligence company headquartered in Chile.
