Orbital Grid: Steering the Course in Space Traffic The expansion of space exploration has brought us to a crucial point – managing the traffic around Earth's orbit. The Orbital Grid system is leading the way in this new challenge. This advanced system uses 4D mapping – which includes space, altitude, and precise timing – to track and control space objects with remarkable accuracy. Orbital Grid is not just about better satellite operations; it's key to avoiding collisions and dealing with space debris. As a seasoned entrepreneur in tech, I see the Orbital Grid as a groundbreaking tool that demands global teamwork and a commitment to sustainable space use. It's our path to a safer, more connected space environment. Read more on Medium: https://bit.ly/42bdduL #SpaceInnovation #H3PlusSystem #SustainableSpace #TechAdvancements #SpaceExploration 🚀✨

The next Landsat mission, known as Landsat Next, is planned for launch in late 2030 or early 2031. This mission will involve a constellation of three identical satellites, enhancing temporal resolution and data collection capabilities significantly compared to previous missions. The new satellites will offer improved spatial and spectral resolutions and are expected to provide approximately 20 times more data than Landsat 9. Landsat Next will have the following capabilities: Temporal Revisit: The constellation of three identical satellites will provide a temporal revisit time of 6 days collectively, with each satellite having an 18-day revisit period. Spectral Resolution: Landsat Next will include 26 spectral bands, which is a significant increase from previous Landsat missions. This includes 11 refined versions of heritage Landsat bands, five bands similar to those of the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-2 to facilitate data merging, and 10 new spectral bands to support emerging applications. Spatial Resolution: The spatial resolution of Landsat Next will vary across the spectral bands, ranging from 10 to 60 meters. This includes improved spatial resolutions in some bands compared to previous Landsat missions, enhancing the detail and usability of the data.

Imagine a future where space exploration and satellite launches can coexist with a clean and debris-free orbital space. 🌍💫 As a business we produce a lot of components that end up in space (they are meant to be there!), so this article from E+T about how we can effectively clean up space debris to keep up with the demand for more and more satellites is really interesting. #satellite #launches #spaceexploration #future #satellitelaunch #space #OrbitalCleanup

The geosynchronous market is moving more towards small satellites with more and more GEO spacecraft ordered in the small size class. SmallSat GEO is intended for the communications market and can operate in geosynchronous orbit and provide higher power and performance than may have been necessary for LEO. #Space #SmallSat #GEO
