📣 Partnership Annoucement 🛰️ iLAuNCH Trailblazer x Inovor Technologies Satellites rely on radio systems to generate, transmit, receive and process signals. Satellites are akin to computers in the sky, and radio communication serves as their primary means of interaction with us on the ground. Naturally, when communicating with any type of computer, more data is advantageous, and satellites are no exception! The iLAuNCH Trailblazer project brings together The Australian National University and Inovor to develop resilient radio links to ground stations and for inter-satellite communication. The project will develop and qualify a satellite-based Software Defined Radio for an on orbit demonstration of capability. All these critical components, will be crafted within our facilities, to establish a sovereign edge, reinforcing our ability to maximise mission assurance ✨ Matthew Tetlow | Darin Lovett #InovorTech #SATCOMM #Collaboration #Partnership #SpaceInAustralia

Space Force to test modular satellite technology in upcoming mission A “plug-and-play” satellite interface developed by The Aerospace Corporation will be used to build a small satellite for a tactically responsive space mission The program seeks to validate technologies and tactics to shorten the timeline for launching payloads, such as surveillance sensors, into orbit.  Handle is a standardized electrical interface designed to integrate satellite payloads seamlessly into a standardized modular architecture, which simplifies the integration of payloads onto satellite platforms. The technology was previously demonstrated during Aerospace’s Slingshot 1 mission in July 2022, and the Space Force’s Space Safari office plans to incorporate it into the upcoming Victus Salo mission. Under a responsive space mission, the U.S. military would launch a surveillance satellite to quickly inspect a suspected anti-satellite weapon or other objects believed to pose a potential threat to U.S. spacecraft. The Handle interface could be one way to help accelerate the integration of satellites, offering a “plug-and-play” solution that could enable faster satellite assembly and launch preparation, he said. The Space Force is interested in standardized platforms that support a variety of payloads — whether commercially developed or military-specific — without requiring extensive customization.  “The future of affordable space is where there’s an ability to have different payloads and more common bus interfaces,” McClain noted.  Victus Salo, slated for a fall 2026 launch, is one of several missions under the TacRS initiative that seeks to demonstrate the Space Force’s capacity for rapid-response launches and enhanced space domain awareness.  https://lnkd.in/g5iisJSt
