Digital twin implementation in space systems faces significant challenges despite recognized potential. This study presents the first systematic cross-domain analysis comparing implementation challenges between space systems and product development through literature review of 204 sources. Using qualitative analysis, 27 transfer connections were analysed. Results reveal that 70% of product development solutions demonstrate high-to-moderate transfer potential to space systems. The analysis supports strategic reorientation from operational toward design and verification applications, enabling space systems to leverage mature terrestrial solutions while minimizing communication constraints. This establishes a foundation for future empirical validation and cross-domain knowledge transfer.     «
