COMPOSITE SAI — ACTUAL vs. PROJECTION

The Actual composite is computed bottom-up from source-backed sector sub-indices. The Projection composite fills thin-data sectors with analyst-authored estimates (Torak). The gap between them is itself the signal — it tells you which parts of the space economy we can measure today vs. which are still analyst-inferred.

ACTUAL
--
Source-backed factor data only.
PROJECTION
--
Includes analyst estimates — fills data gaps for thin-coverage sectors.

SECTOR SUB-INDICES (13)

Each of the 13 first-class space sectors gets its own sub-index in both tracks. Sectors flagged "Insufficient data" in Actual are the ones the Projection column fills in — and the coverage gap bar shows the size of that fill.

SCENARIO MODELING

Adjust factor scores to model what-if scenarios. Each slider represents a factor's normalized score (0–100). Use presets or drag individual sliders.

FACTOR RELATIONSHIPS

How SAI factors move relative to each other, based on 16 years of historical data. Understanding these relationships reveals which parts of the space economy are structurally linked and which move independently.
