“Astroscale launched the world’s first commercial demonstration mission to showcase the technology needed to remove space debris in LEO in March 2021. Astroscale and their ground segment partners would like to share the latest ground station innovations, lessons learned, and consider how these ground station capabilities and technologies might be applied to future space sustainability on-orbit servicing programs.
Supporting Stokes Nature Center
Every year the KSAT team looks forward to attending the SmallSat conference and visiting our friends at the Stokes Nature Center.
Over the last 5 years, we have built a relationship with Stokes that started based on a shared vision for protecting local ecosystems, promoting science-based education, and helping foster a renewed sense of stewardship in our home planet.
Although not able to visit in person, we continue to support to the nature center and their education programs.
Don’t miss the Canyon Conversations where our EO expert Charlotte Bishop chats with Director of Education Patrick Kelly from Stokes about how satellite data can help us answer questions about our planet.
