Planetary Transportation Systems GmbH

After a successful deployment of our first satellite Curium One, we finally acquired signal! We feel more than happy and excited about this collaboration with Libre Space Foundation as well as participating in the inaugural launch of the ArianeGroup Ariane 6 rocket! We like to thank all our partners for this mission, especially the European Space Agency - ESA, ASTROFEIN - Astro- und Feinwerktechnik Adlershof GmbH and our shareholders! Special thanks to ASTRON and everyone at Dwingeloo Radio Observatory for their great help acquiring first contact!

📌 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐨 𝐀𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐬! On July 9th, Planetary Transportation Systems GmbH's Curium One 🛰️ will be launched carrying Libre Space Foundation's SatNOGS-COMMS, and the mission will be onboard the #Ariane6. 🚀 The launch window is between 20:00 and 23:00 CEST (18:00 and 21:00 UTC), and your valuable help is needed to track Curium One at 436.240 MHz. Curium One will be active after 19:35 UTC.  https://lnkd.in/dJ6bEJEi

#Ariane6: 🚀 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... Lift-Off: Fly Ariane, fly! 🚀 This launch marks a monumental moment for European spaceflight and demonstrates the exceptional skills and collaboration within the European space community ... Europe is back in the game! We are thrilled to announce that our Astrofein CubeSat dispensers #PSL aboard the legendary Ariane 6 maiden flight have successfully delivered the OOV-Cube and Curium One satellites into their target orbits! OOV-Cube (On Orbit Verification Cube) is the result of a joint mission between Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics of the Technische Universität Berlin and Rapid Cubes GmbH, while Curium One is from Planetary Transportation Systems GmbH. A huge thank you to European Space Agency - ESA and ARIANESPACE for the smooth ride to orbit! We are proud to be part of this mission and to celebrate such a historic event together.

Idea to Orbit in 1 Year - The Curium One Satellite 🛰 Over the past seven months, our team has developed the Curium One CubeSat Bus, which will be part of the inaugural Ariane 6 flight 🚀. This mission will showcase our costeffective satellite bus design and the Libre Space Foundation's opensource "SatNOGSCOMMs" radio transceiver, which enables global radio communication experiments. Special thanks to the development teams of the Curium Bus and Libre Space Foundation for their dedicated work! https://lnkd.in/dJ6bEJEi

Thank you for the successful cooperation, Libre Space Foundation 🚀 . We look forward to the continued collaboration!

🚀 Only 2 weeks for the First #Ariane6 Launch in history, and today we want to tell you about the outstanding passengers of the rocket – different types of payloads and a stage of rocket which hosts them! The upper stage, a critical component of the Ariane 6, is equipped with the Vinci engine, powered by cryogenic liquid oxygen and hydrogen. This engine enables multiple burns, allowing the rocket to reach various orbits within a single mission. The upper stage is where the payloads are housed and released. It is designed to burn multiple times to precisely place payloads into their designated orbits and includes a final burn to deorbit itself, reducing space debris. The inaugural flight of Ariane 6, scheduled for July 9, 2024, from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana, will carry a diverse range of payloads: 📦 ExoPod Nova (Exolaunch): This deployer will carry multiple small satellites, including: ▪ 3Cat-4: A CubeSat from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, designed for educational and experimental purposes. ▪ ISTSat-1: Developed by the University of Lisbon, focusing on educational and scientific missions. ▪ CURIE: A CubeSat from #NASA for scientific experiments. ▪ GRBBeta: Created by Spacemanic, this CubeSat focuses on gamma-ray burst detection. 🛸 NYX Bikini (The Exploration Company): A reentry capsule designed to demonstrate and validate reentry technologies for future missions. 🛰 OOV-Cube (RapidCubes Inc.): A CubeSat focusing on technology demonstrations and educational purposes. 🔬 LiFi (OLEDCOMM LiFi): An experimental payload aimed at testing LiFi technology in space. 🛰 SIDLOC (Libre Space Foundation): A CubeSat designed for educational and scientific experiments, focusing on satellite identification and localization. 🔬 PariSat (Garef Aérospatial): An experimental payload aimed at educational purposes and scientific research. 🛰 Peregrinus (Sint-Pieterscollege Leuven): Another educational CubeSat designed for scientific experiments. 📦 RAMI (UARX Space): A deployer system designed to release multiple CubeSats into orbit, ensuring precise trajectory placement. 🛸 SpaceCase SC-X01 (ArianeGroup): A reentry capsule for technology demonstrations and validation. 🛰 Curium One (Planetary Transportation Systems GmbH): A CubeSat focusing on scientific experiments and technology demonstrations. 📹 YPSAT (ESA): Developed by ESA's Education Office and the University of Lisbon, YPSat will remain attached to the upper stage and record the mission, capturing pictures and video of the rocket during flight. These payloads demonstrate the Ariane 6's capability to handle multiple missions, providing a versatile platform for scientific, commercial, and exploratory purposes. In the next post we will tell you more about the payload, Scanway is part of, STAY TUNED! #Ariane6 #ScanwaySpace #YPSAT #launch #euspace #ESA

Happy to join you on a ride soon!
