This is fantastic news, big congrats to the #EIRSAT1 team! The ongoing outreach and community engagement is also amazing. Here's to the team achieving their #science objectives over the coming months 📡🛰️🌍

[EIRSAT-1 @EIRSAT1]

Since launching on Friday, EIRSAT-1 has circled the Earth 34 times! Signals from EIRSAT-1 have been acquired both at our own ground station and by many brilliant radio enthusiasts all around the world. @AmsatUK @SatNOGS @SDRadioClub

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

Watching the #amsat socials this morning buzzing with #EIRSAT1 telemetry. Huge congratulations to the @EIRSAT1 team, although given how professional and hardworking the @UCD_Cspace team was I am not surprised to see the success! 📡🛰️🌍

[UCD Research @UCD_Research]

EIRSAT-1 SIGNAL RECEIVED!

EIRSAT alive #EIRSAT1 !!!

[EIRSAT-1 @EIRSAT1]

Calling all radio enthusiasts! This is the preliminary TLE we will be using to track the satellite, stay tuned for updated TLEs as we get them 🛰️

📣 And we are on!! Drop by Stand D25 at @SpaceTechExpoEU in Bremen to be the first to demo HELIX - our end-to-end upstream-to-downstream suite of space software products.

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

@BBCAmos It's fantastic that, as an industry, this survey happens at all and having contributed to it, I welcomed the results. But a response rate of 12% of organisations in the sector, and one which under-represents SMEs, makes me very concerned about how representative this is

[Bright Ascension @BrightAscension]

HELIX is our new end-to-end software suite to be released later in the year. See us on Booth #194 at #SmallSat for new and excising updates, full product range details, first visuals and more!

[Bright Ascension @BrightAscension]

And we are on!! Meet us on Booth #194 to find out what HELIX is, what it means and - more importantly - why your mission really needs it!

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

Couldn't agree more! We @BrightAscension are specifically focussed on applying our tech to the integration problem: getting upstream and downstream to play well, bringing together missions and applications for max efficiency and min time to market #space #software

[Aravind 🌍 ���� @aravindEO]

Although I spend my time predominantly in Earth observation, one area of the space industry that interests me a lot (given my software past) is creating and owning the software stack for space.

Immense potential for big recurring revenues and impact in the industry!

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

@florincioloboc @aravindEO We @BrightAscension are working on a lot of this. We have a background in upstream but are currently extending our tech to downstream too

1/ For years, a friend (“RD”) and I trade examples we find of
“Nominative Determinism”—

—when someone’s name possibly maybe influenced what they ended up doing in their career (or otherwise and most probably just hilarious coincidence)...

Like...

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

Correlation or causation? Love this thread on nominative determinism. Reminds of an ongoing nominative determinism collection from @wolfejosh

[Kit Yates @Kit_Yates_Maths]

Ironically, despite the purported evidence for the phenomenon, the fact that the two younger (lower?) Limbs followed their parents (upper Limbs?) into their profession hints at a role for familial influence in determining careers, in medicine at least.

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

The @spacegovuk Trajectory Accelerator is an exciting and inspiring programme for #space #startups and scale-ups. It was fantastic to meet everyone there and to hear about the great things the participants will achieve in the future

[Bright Ascension @BrightAscension]

@PeterMendham, our CEO, was in Edinburgh this week to take part in a #UKSpace Accelerator Trajectory event and share his views, advice and insights on growing a company in the #spaceindustry. Thank you, @spacegovuk, for the opportunity!

The technology that Bright Ascension has created & refined over past 11 years solves some of the key problems in the New Space sector by allowing standard modular software to be rapidly adapted to mission needs. Check their full portfolio on @satsearchco: https://t.co/YVPLJBgVFO

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

@aravindEO I believe the @MooreFound was (and is?) a key funder behind the fabulous @SeaHawk_HawkEye

[Peter Mendham @PeterMendham]

@edwinhayward Need to be a little careful with number 11. Whilst we no longer fully collaborate in Galileo and Copernicus (both EU programmes) and are very much worse off for that, the majority of our "collaborative space exploration" continues much as it has done through ESA, which is not EU.
