Eutelsat Communications S.A.

Slingshot Aerospace builds world-class space simulation and analytics solutions. We are driven by our vision of accelerating space sustainability to create a safer, more connected world.

Space is increasingly complex due to the exponential growth of global launch activity, the proliferation of new data sources, and the ever-growing body of new satellites and debris. Organizations are making mission-critical decisions in this high-risk environment and they need the right information at the right time. Slingshot Aerospace empowers government and commercial space organizations to better design, manage, and safeguard their assets, as well as mitigate risks, to ensure safe and reliable operations for all space-faring users.

We are achieving this by bringing the space domain into the digital environment and fusing together data from different sources to provide a full, dynamic orbital picture. In doing so, Slingshot Aerospace customers can make decisions at the speed of relevance and achieve clarity in complex environments.

The Slingshot Global Sensor Network team has been hard at work commissioning our first Horus LEO staring array in Colorado – and it’s already generating 350,000+ uncued observations per night! 

Our continued LEO-focused expansion will add seven more Horus sensor systems around the world, unlocking optical LEO satellite tracking at scale. 

Slingshot Vantage for LEO: 

✔  Space Event Intelligence
✔️  Launch & Early Operations Support
✔️  Pattern of Life Analysis
✔️  Maneuver Detection
✔️  Breakup & Reentry Tracking

Find us at AMOS Conference this week to learn more about how Horus is advancing Slingshot Vantage for LEO!

Ms. Fellow!

2023 was quite the year. 

From launch to tracking satellites. Saying goodbye and saying hello. Keeping the kids inspired and finally getting some balance back. 

But one of my proudest moments was being asked to be a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society !

For a little girl who went to Airshows in Canada, being part of such a historical society that now represents the future of our industry, is such a dream come true.

I am excited to continue to show the world how we can use space technology to do Good. 

And how women from all backgrounds can lead in it.

I'm excited to share that I will be co-chairing the Conjunction/RPO session at the 25th AMOS Conference with Mariel Borowitz. The deadline for submitting abstracts and short course proposals is March 1st. Please see the link below for details. Looking forward to another great AMOS conference!

When Astrobotic’s Peregrine spacecraft experienced a propulsion anomaly during its historic attempt to land on the Moon, Slingshot was tapped by Space Exploration Engineering (SEE) to quickly step in and provide supplemental tracking data to support orbit estimation and re-entry planning for Peregrine. 

The Slingshot Global Sensor Network collected multiple observations of the spacecraft over the period of a week – which at the furthest point of collection was at lunar distance, ~390,000 km from Earth.

The video in this post shows:

The Slingshot Global Sensor Network delivers timely astrometric and photometric space domain awareness insights via the world’s only day/night LEO-to-xGEO optical sensor network.

Slingshot Aerospace is proud to be providing software solutions and subject matter expertise for the Air Force Research Laboratory’s (AFRL) Oracle-M cislunar mission!

Oracle-M, AFRL's inaugural cislunar mission, was developed in partnership with US Space Force Space Systems Command (SSC) and is on track to be delivered in mid-2024. This pathfinder mission aims to perform experiments on space object detection and tracking in cislunar space - providing the foundation for sustainable lunar exploration.

Slingshot’s core mission is to make space safe, sustainable, and secure - which extends into deep space. We are proud to be at the forefront of helping to develop SSA capabilities that reach beyond Earth’s orbit and allow for responsible cislunar exploration.

Slingshot Aerospace has been selected by NOAA's Office of Space Commerce (OSC) to be a part of the first commercial data order for the Traffic Coordination System for Space (TraCSS). Slingshot will provide low Earth orbit (LEO) space situational awareness (SSA) data and services for the TraCSS Consolidated Pathfinder.

In this initial phase of TraCSS, Slingshot will collect critical spacecraft and debris tracking data that will inform the development of the TraCSS operational system and assess industry capabilities to maintain a LEO space object catalog. Slingshot will be working alongside LeoLabs and COMSPOC to conduct the Consolidated Pathfinder for LEO SSA.

The Slingshot Global Sensor Network will provide ground-based-optical space object tracking data for this project, leveraging its global network of day/night telescopes and newly-deployed optical fence systems – which were developed specifically to detect and track LEO space objects at scale.

We are excited for this new era of partnership between the Office of Space Commerce and commercial SSA providers. The TraCSS operational system will play a critical role in ensuring spaceflight safety and clearly aligns with our mission of making space safe, sustainable, and secure. 

This is a monumental step toward civil space traffic coordination, and we are proud to be at the forefront of this historical shift.
