Neuraspace and Arcsec partner for debris detection

Neuraspace, a provider of space traffic management (STM) has partnered with Arcsec, a provider of star trackers to develop a new way to detect space debris.

Neuraspace will harness Arcsec’s space-based star trackers for detection and characterisation of space debris and resident space objects. Arcsec’s trackers use optical sensors onboard their satellites to determine spacecraft attitude. The brightness information about space objects from these star trackers provides crucial insights into the size of detected debris. Additionally, they have reprogrammable capability in orbit, so already-launched sensors can be enhanced with space situational awareness (SSA) functionality. www.neuraspace.com

Open Cosmos satellites successfully launched

Latest two satellites, MANTIS and PLATERO, of Open Cosmos have successfully reached orbit following the launch of the SpaceX Transporter-9 mission at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, US.

Both satellites will join MENUT launched earlier this year as part of the OpenConstellation, a global, shared Earth Observation satellite infrastructure built and managed by the company.

Data collected from OpenConstellation satellites can be accessed by organisations and businesses of all sizes, as well as national and regional governments to address challenges around the climate crisis, energy, natural resources and more. www.open-cosmos.com
