Typical associations with space exploration are space rockets with complex technologies that bring new scientific knowledge. In order to improve space exploration, spaceflight procedures have been improved in recent decades. However, the situation of CO2 emissions and pollution caused by space travel is still questionable.

KLAUS Space Transportation is a global start-up company that aims to make space transportation sustainable. With their Inflatable Atmospheric Decelerator project, they are working on a more environmentally friendly way to replace disposable rockets and end the problem of ocean pollution from the remaining parts. Their patent protects an innovative technology that includes a reusable heat shield and simultaneous parachutes for space cargo that require no fuel. This can make space travel less expensive and more environmentally friendly.

The startup was funded by the European Space Agency's 2021 Business Incubation Center to conduct further research. They are currently working on new tests to further develop their project so it can become an end-to-end space return service.

The Chair of Entrepreneurship & Innovative Business Models is looking forward to welcoming Sebastian Klaus (CEO & Founder) from KLAUS Space Transportation and having a great exchange with our students from "Introduction to Entrepreneurship" and "Business Model Innovation".
