Two new microsatellites, Redwing and the Little Innovator in Space Situational Awareness, or LISSA, will travel in a low-earth orbit, at approximately 575 km above the Earth’s surface. The satellites will overfly the North and South poles to fill a gap in space domain awareness, particularly near the South pole, where there are few other sensors to track and monitor space objects.

“In March 2023, Minister of National Defence at the time, the Honourable Anita Anand, announced that Canada awarded a contract for the Redwing space domain awareness microsatellite project, valued at $15.8 million, to be designed, built and operated in Canada. Now, Canada has signed a contract option to add a $900,000 subsatellite to the Redwing project. The subsatellite, known as Little Innovator in Space Situational Awareness (LISSA), will launch with the Redwing satellite and will be deployed after Redwing is in orbit.” Thoth Technology Inc.

🛰💥 In space, speed defies comprehension: while sound travels at 768 mph (1236 km/h) on Earth, objects in orbit reach lightning speeds, approaching 18,000 mph (28,970 km/h). At these speeds, each fragment becomes a major threat to satellites and the critical infrastructures that govern our communications, security and even our economy. That's where Aldoria comes in. By precisely monitoring the trajectories of these objects and anticipating the risk of collision, we are protecting the future of space activities. At the heart of our mission is advanced technology and expertise in Space Situational Awareness (SSA), enabling us to transform complex orbital data into strategic information. In a world where space is becoming a vital domain, mastering these dynamics is a question of sovereignty and sustainability. As a pioneer, Aldoria plays a key role in protecting this new frontier.

Communication satellites 🛰️ on orbit without flexible ground stations 📡 and adaptive user terminals are merely more objects in space. Intelligent SATCOM requires innovation in space, on the ground, and in its application. #satcomasaservice #integratedarchitectures #hybridsatcom #leadership #innovation #dotherightthing #nationalsecurity #defense #satellitecommunications #WSBW2024 #SDSS2024
When it comes to satcom technology most of us think about satellites in space. But what happens on Earth is just as important. Ground station antennas are essential for the exchange of data between Earth and the orbiting technology above. In advance of Viasat’s Aaron Hawkins attending World Space Business Week to discuss all things ground segment, discover more about our ground station network and how our Ground-Segment-as-a-Service model is transforming satellite scalability and affordability: https://vsat.co/3AGvsyu #WSBW #groundnetwork #satellitecommunications
