Constellation Projects Summary and Comparisons

Having heard earlier in the day from our Constellation Briefs, the panel will discuss the challenges of operating fleets of many satellites and the new, off-the-shelf tools that address these challenges. This includes space traffic management and collision avoidance; satellite operations and scheduling software; ground-based and space-based communications networks for downloading data; responsive launch services to get replacement satellites into orbit quickly; and de-orbit capabilities. This is an area that has seen rapid development but it’s rarely spoken of as one cohesive unit. Usually it is broken into many different sessions. Today a satellite company could be built from entirely off-the-shelf services and hardware but few people appreciate this fact.
