Rust in Space (2025)
NASA and ESA are actively testing Rust for flight software, RTOS, and cFS to improve safety. ESA-funded Ephemerista and its Rust backend Lox power high-precision astrodynamics simulations. KSAT runs Rust in production for mission-critical ground stations handling massive data flows. No headline-grabbing all-Rust flight yet—but steady adoption across space software is clear.
