Advanced Space exists to support the sustainable exploration, development, and settlement of space. Our expertise are in dynamics, estimation, and control.
@DARPA has selected Professor Tam Nguyen to lead an effort to improve detection and tracking of objects in cislunar space, with Advanced Space supporting the work. ๐ญ
Cislunar space spans more than 200,000 miles in radius, collision risk is rising, and no single system today covers the full volume. Nguyen, assistant professor at the @UofMaryland, is designing a mission that pairs commercial off-the-shelf optics with efficient search and detection algorithms, placing a space telescope at a vantage point intended to view the cislunar region in its entirety. Advanced Space will be handling the flight software development and systems engineering for the project.
Thank you to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (@DARPA) Professor Nguyen, and the @UofMaryland. We look forward to this collaboration.

Satellites, debris, and geopolitics filled the room at the 3rd Annual Future of Space Policy Forum and Expo. ๐
The panel explored where accountability lies as orbital debris accumulates, how activity in orbit should be governed, and what a sustainable path forward could look like. Our Chief of Mission Solutions, Steve Clarke, joined the discussion with leaders from industry, policy, and government on what comes next for space sustainability.
Thank you to @CouncilDenver on Foreign Relations for bringing together voices committed to the future of space.

Advanced Space was at the excellent Advanced Maui Optical and Space Surveillance Technologies (AMOS) Conference this week! ๐บ
As is our tradition each year, and to mark the occasion, we are releasing our new Aloha shirt! This edition celebrates the 15th anniversary of the company and highlights all our work, from our own Advanced Space-led missions to those we support and enable!
From CAPSTONE in orbit at the Moon to CAPSTONE 02, and ESCAPADE currently on its way to Mars, every mission from the past 15 years came from strong partnerships and amazing customers. Our team is dedicated to your missions, and we thank you for trusting us with them.

NASA has awarded Advanced Space a follow-on Phase II SBIR contract to mature Lunar Sentinel for close-approach risk assessment of objects at the Moon. ๐๐
The project, managed by the Small Spacecraft and Distributed Systems team, part of the NASA RTMD, at @NASAAmes, focuses on developing algorithms to detect, track, and catalog non-transmitting objects in Low Lunar Orbit (LLO) using a hybrid network of lunar-surface and in-space optical sensors.
Advanced Space will mature an end-to-end autonomous cataloging and risk-assessment capability, including detection network design, track association, orbit determination, conjunction assessment, and long-term catalog maintenance.
The work is intended to provide a framework for a future distributed lunar-orbit cataloging and space-traffic-management constellation with minimal reliance on Earth.

Advanced imaging capabilities are coming to CAPSTONE 02.
Weโre excited to partner with @Livermore_Lab (LLNL), whose tri-optic imaging payload will bring advanced optical capabilities to the mission.
The payload will image CAPSTONE 02โs companion spacecraft at ranges relevant to rendezvous and proximity operations, providing data supporting relative navigation. It will also observe the Moon, Earth, star fields, and distant solar-system objects to support mission imaging and navigation.
