Wishing you a joyous holiday season and a very happy New Year. We look forward to meeting your mission needs in 2025 and beyond. Happy Holidays! #aerospace #spacetechnology #holidayseason

To guide the Biosentinel CubeSat past the Moon to orbit the Sun, NASA Ames Research Center looked to Blue Canyon Technologies’ high-performance and flight-proven XACT-15 guidance and navigation system. Now in its second year of operation, Biosentinel’s mission has been extended again to continue collecting valuable deep space radiation data in the unique, high-radiation environment beyond low Earth orbit.

Ascent, launched December 7, 2021, is a 12U CubeSat developed by Blue Canyon Technologies within the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Space Vehicles Directorate’s Small Satellite Portfolio, in partnership with the Space Security and Defense Program. Blue Canyon’s radiation-tolerant, precision-pointing CubeSat platform was the first CubeSat flown by AFRL in the GEO space environment, which introduced a number of challenges not present in the low Earth orbit environment where most CubeSats have been flown and tested. Originally designed for a lifespan of two years, Ascent is still successfully operating on-orbit now three years later. #smallsats #cubesats #space #spacetechnology #aerospace #GEO

The first fully processed images from MethaneSAT showcase the satellite’s groundbreaking ability to produce high precision, high resolution quantitative data on methane emissions over vast oil and gas fields, including total emissions from smaller, dispersed sources invisible to other satellites. Blue Canyon Technologies provided its highly accurate, low jitter Saturn-200 bus platform for this important mission.

Simone D'Amico and his team at Stanford's Space Rendezvous Laboratory recently completed the guidance, navigation and control review of the VIrtual Super Optics Reconfigurable Swarm (VISORS) mission. Using Blue Canyon’s industry-trusted CubeSat technology, VISORS represents a very complex formation-flying mission with ambitious science and technological objectives combining exquisite formation-control performance with robust collision avoidance capabilities never demonstrated in orbit.
