Ground & Operations

Launch is the beginning, not the end. We build the ground segment and run the operations that keep your spacecraft talking for the life of the mission.

End-to-end imaging satellite mission architectureA ground station with a four-element X-band monopulse tracking array radiates computed sum and difference antenna patterns to a 3U CubeSat in low Earth orbit. The CubeSat radiates an X-band downlink pattern back to the ground and images the Earth through a sensor cone. A two-stage launch vehicle climbs an ascent trajectory to orbit above a photographic Earth limb.
