#ApolloAccelerator cohort 2 is planning an integrated test to detect the SpaceX Transporter-10 launch, then rapidly search and reacquire the True Anomaly Jackal spacecraft. Once these commercial #SDA providers gain custody, they will then evaluate target stability and photometry to classify them as payload, rocket body, or debris. Goal: fully automated, faster than Space Surveillance Network, fully not-classified. Image shows these companies working together to solve National Space Defense Center (NSDC) problems.

Since it's fully not classified would love to see the tracks provided by InTrack Radar Technologies, Inc. on the launch. Curious what satellites are being used for the launch capture
Some familiar faces there!

6moAwesome work Sean Allen & team -- this is exactly the kind of innovation we need. But the next step is more difficult -- assumign you do meet the goal of "fully automated, faster than SSN" how do we get these capabilities moved into operations with the same kind of speed? You'll need some innovation on that front too and it's a harder problem than the tech these companies are developing.
