Infostellar, a leading provider of cloud-native ground segment services, and Antaris, the leading AI for Space platform for the design, simulation, manufacturing, and operation of satellite constellations and space missions, announced the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to enable automated satellite operations by integrating cloud-native ground station services with software-defined mission planning and command APIs.
This partnership aims to bridge the gap between mission planning and on-orbit execution. By exploring the integration of Infostellar’s global ground station network with Antaris, the two companies will provide satellite operators with a seamless environment to model, simulate, and execute complex mission sequences with unprecedented operational flexibility and speed.
Key highlights of the collaboration include:
- Integrated Mission Modeling: Infostellar’s ground station capabilities will be represented within the Antaris Space Platform, allowing operators to perform high-fidelity mission simulations using real-world ground segment data.
- Automated Ground Operations: The companies will develop software-defined APIs to enable dynamic pass scheduling, automated constellation orchestration, and real-time satellite command and control (C2).
- Enhanced Data Efficiency: Technical integrations will focus on minimising data collection latency and maximising throughput, ensuring that critical mission data reaches operators faster and more reliably.
- Scalable Solutions: Joint marketing and sales activities will focus on satellite operators seeking agile, software-defined ground segment solutions that can scale with their constellations.
“This MOA represents an important step toward bridging mission planning and real-world ground station operations,” said Naomi Kurahara, Founder and CEO of Infostellar. “By exploring integration with Antaris’ mission operations software, we aim to help satellite operators move more seamlessly from simulation to execution.” “Satellite operators need to move seamlessly from planning to execution without having to stitch together fragmented systems,” said Tom Barton, CEO and Founder of Antaris. “By partnering with Infostellar, we’re expanding the Antaris Space Platform with expanded cloud-native ground station capabilities—giving operators greater automation, responsiveness, and scale across mission planning, orchestration, and operations.”
