June 21 (Reuters) - Intelsat SA has ended negotiations to combine with SES SA (SESFg.LU) as it was not able to reach an agreement with the satellite company and its major stakeholders, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday citing people familiar with the matter. SES had said in March it was in talks with Intelsat over a possible combination of their businesses that would create an industry giant. Bloomberg News reported in March the two companies were nearing a deal valued at more than $10 billion, including debt. Intelsat and SES did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment.

CNBC's Investing in Space newsletter offers a view into the business of space exploration and privatization, delivered straight to your inbox. A division within Northrop Grumman has in recent years become the world leader in extending the life of valuable satellites that are already in orbit. I chatted this week with Jean-Luc Froeliger, senior vice president of space systems at Intelsat, whose company announced an order from Northrop Grumman's Space Logistics unit for its latest service technology iteration. A quick step back: In 2020, Northrop Grumman's robotic spacecraft MEV-1 successfully docked with an old Intelsat satellite and extended its life by five years, marking an industry first. A year later, the companies took that feat a step further, docking MEV-2 with an active Intelsat satellite.
