Launch failures or in-orbit anomalies or operational errors are a constant risk facing satellite operators and create the potential for damage to third party property or, in extreme cases, injury or loss of life.
Aesir Space provides launch and in-orbit third-party liability policies in compliance with the legal licensing requirements for NewSpace missions as part of a comprehensive, integrated insurance programme.
