IDIOSYNCRASY OF INTERNATIONAL SPACE MARKETS Six decades have passed since the launch of the first artificial satellite by the USSR (Sputnik) and five decades since the landing of human beings on the Moon (Apollo project -USA-), two of the greatest landmarks of the space race that began in the shadow of the “Cold War” between the US and the USSR. After the conquest of the new world in the 16th century, this is considered a new turning point in the history of humanity that leads some authors to claim it as the beginning of a new period of history: The Space Age.

The drive to use COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) components in the space industry is growing since these parts allow to obtain higher performance at the system level, which is difficult to obtain using currently available space components. However, the use of COTS components has an inherent risk because of the lack of confidence in the traceability and the long-term performance of these parts as well as the new concerns affecting mostly this type of products (RoHS, counterfeit parts, long-term reliability, etc.).
