The future of space exploration is changing with the application and development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The AI-based telescope steering system offers a solution for the automatic management of telescopes without the need for human labor, allowing for the real-time tracking of interesting events. The proposed system not only helps in more precise and in-depth exploration of space but also creates new business and startup opportunities in the fields of science and technology.Traditional telescopes are manually operated by astronomers, and specialists in the field capture and collect images of interesting nuances and events in space in a professional manner. However, this approach reduces resources and makes it difficult to explore wider areas of space. The AI-based telescope steering system allows the telescope to automatically explore events in space without human intervention, and it can identify and track the most interesting objects or events in real-time. This technology helps telescopes to work faster and more accurately, which results in the collection of more precise data and significantly advances space research.The business model to be implemented presents a tool that makes space exploration more accessible and faster. Such a system has great potential not only for academic and research purposes but also for commercial applications in space tourism and other sectors of the space market. Telescopes equipped with artificial intelligence can be used in both large observation stations and small, independent operational telescopes.The development of the system will initially require high-performance AI models and specialized sensors. To bring such a business to market, strategic business plans should be prepared to collaborate with space organizations and enter into contracts with government entities. A business model supported by insurance, technical support, and software services can provide long-term benefits to companies and governments investing in space research.The AI-based telescope steering system is a remarkable innovation in space exploration, and entering this market can bring significant revenue to companies and startups in the space technology sector. Furthermore, this approach allows astronauts and researchers to spend less time and gather more data, accelerating space exploration.
