Our Platform · Mission design and compliance

Get the mission right before it leaves the ground.

Find the risk, optimise the orbit and prove compliance while the design can still change.

Where missions go wrong

In the design phase, the requirements never stop moving.

Every change to the orbit, the satellite count or the customer's requirement reopens coverage, phasing, maneuver budgets and compliance. A lean team needs those answers in hours, not headcount.

Every change reopens the trade space

Orbit, satellite count and propellant trade against each other. Move one requirement and the whole analysis has to run again.

Iteration is priced out

Coverage, phasing and maneuver budgets are analyzed properly the first time. Running that analysis again for every requirement change is what the schedule and the budget cannot absorb.

Tools that cost before they answer

Mission design software runs expensive and takes months to learn. You commit to a licence and a learning curve before a single usable result, and every extra seat raises the price of asking.

Compliance left as an open question

Twenty plus frameworks across ESA, FCC, ITU and national authorities. Check them late and you find the gaps at licensing, when a fix costs months.

What we do

Everything that has to be right before you build. We help you get it right.

Model the mission, test the trade-offs and prove compliance with us, with every design change checked as you make it.

Coverage and constellation design

Evaluate coverage and revisit time, then size the constellation to hit the target with the fewest satellites. Walker-Delta, Walker-Star and repeat ground-track presets included.

Deployment and phasing

Plan orbit injection, satellite grouping and phasing before you commit to a launch, so the constellation reaches its working geometry the way you intended.

Orbit maintenance and maneuver budgets

Optimise orbit selection and station-keeping against propellant and lifetime. Estimate collision avoidance maneuvers per phase using ESA-aligned methodology, and confirm your propulsion can handle the delta-V.

End of life and reentry

Model deorbit and reentry against solar activity, atmospheric density and geomagnetic conditions. Check controlled reentry feasibility, casualty risk and your debris and light pollution footprint.

Compliance verification

Check the design against 20+ debris frameworks, including Zero Debris, NASA ODMSP, the French Space Operations Act, FCC and ESA ESSB-ST-U007. Generate audit-ready reports and catch the gaps before a regulator does.

How it comes together

From concept to a compliant design, in four steps.

01

Define the mission

You give us the orbit, the spacecraft and the constraints. That sets the baseline.

02

Model it with us

Test coverage, deployment, maneuver budgets and disposal against a live debris environment.

03

Optimise the trade-offs

Balance cost, performance and propellant with data instead of estimates.

04

Prove compliance

Check the design against every framework that applies and export reports you can put in front of a regulator.
