Aspect Aerospace

At Aspect Aerospace, we are a dedicated team of satellite designers and builders with flight heritage. Rather than just shrinking a CubeSat into a smaller CubeSat, we've decided to rewrite the script. Leveraging the single-board satellite architecture, we're bringing to market a "constellation in-a-box" -- a whole constellation of 20-100 satellites, deployed from a single CubeSat, for less than the cost of a single CubeSat. Each satellite would cost hundreds of dollars, rather than traditional hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. From a single launch, we can do: - Distributed optics, with each satellite hosting a camera, allowing us to do extremely fast revisits, image stacking, 3d stereo optics, etc. While each individual camera is worse than a larger, more traditional camera, by leveraging 20-100 of them, it starts to outperform individual earth observation satellites. - Deployable mesh networks: a large / government-owned and operated satellite could host a cannister of these satellites, ready to go, in the event of adversarial attack or disrupted radio communications -- and rapidly deploy a mesh radio network on-demand. - Aggregate data collection: dispense a constellation into a space weather storm, patch of high-density neutral particles, etc. to capture data with extreme accuracy. - Batch testing in space: the bread-and-butter of the company is rapid prototyping and batch testing in space. We can host a component to test, deploy them in-situ across 100 satellites at a lower price point than on-ground testing, and generate 100 hours of space qualification time per real-world hour. You could get 73,000 hours of space qual time in one month, for cheaper than on-ground testing, with a faster turnaround time as these things are mass produced, ready to go.
