Nanosatellites for Technology Readiness Level 9
Looking for a partner for the last step in the technology development ladder? If you are ready to reach the top in Technology Readiness Levels (TRL), we are here to take you there with the market’s lower risk.
We help space technology companies and R&D centers to demonstrate new technology products, in particular when they require evidence of flight heritage or when there is high risk associated to their utilization. Go for the ‘flight proven’ status getting rid of all the hassle involved in the mission (satellite, launch, communications…).
Our 5-step Method to Support In-Orbit Demonstration (IOD)
Choose Platform and Technology
CubeSats are suitable to perform In-Orbit Demonstration of Technology (IOD). We know the most cost-effective systems and software on the market to plan the mission based on standard architectures (1U, 2U, 3U, 6U and 12U). Our ground and space segments are designed in an integrated way to reduce complexity and budgets. Hardware is adaptable on requirements of your payload integration.
Get a plan
We know how to design small satellite missions (nanosatellites and microsatellites under CubeSat standard) in the most cost-effective way, while getting rid of those parts that do not add value to your In-Orbit Demonstration (IOD) project. Dedicated missions or shared missions depending on your preferences.
Stay Focused on your IOD
Project managers have to focus on their project’s mission driven innovations and cannot accept additional work. Following the ESA-ECCS standards and guaranteed by our experience we will command all the mission management, supply complete operations support, and manage the launch for you. We know about required mission bureaucracy.
Get the Data
We know about space telecommunications. Acquiring data on space environments to prepare the deployment of future innovations is not easy. Rely on us for bringing back all your technical data to Earth. All your information will be fulfilled securely and confidentially, and in strict adherence to ethical and legal rules and regulations.
Success
All the technology, engineering and support required by your mission is based on our flight heritage trusted design, integration and operations to accomplish low-risk cost-effective missions.
