Saber Astronautics has officially opened the company’s new Adelaide, Australia-based office — this new facility will serve as Saber’s primary place of business in South Australia and includes both software development and new spacecraft design facilities.
The Australian space sector is quickly growing, with hundreds of new space missions being planned in the commercial and defence sectors. Australia alone witnessed 120 startups since the birth of the nation’s space agency in 2017, creating thousands of new high-tech jobs. Saber’s spacecraft Concurrent Design facility will help projects develop their ideas for approval by government agencies as well as support investor decisions. Likewise, government agencies can use the facility to design future missions of national interest.
Since the opening of the Responsive Space Operations Centre™ (RSOC), Saber has more than doubled its presence in South Australia. The new facility will be Saber’s headquarters in South Australia, working collaboratively with governments, innovators, and businesses.
Saber is proud to thank Alcami Architecture, in collaboration with Saber’s Andreas Antoniades, for the design, and Shape, who led the construction.
“Australian industry has great ideas for missions of strategic importance such as climate change, agriculture, mining, and Defence.

“The Saber Astronautics office has been ingeniously designed to serve as a hub for pivotal conversations surrounding the future of the space industry in Australia. By blending elements of science fiction and architectural innovation, this remarkable space creates an immersive experience that fuels imagination, sparks innovation, and invites individuals to dream beyond the confines of the ordinary.” — Victor Alcami, Director, Alcami Architecture
