Projects

A constellation of small satellites is collecting rapidly refreshed weather data to advance studies of hurricane structure and intensity and improve forecasts.

A deployable navigation network of small, low-cost radio transponders can help track the locations of first responders during rescue operations.

High-altitude balloons used as beyond-line-of-sight relays would provide communications nodes if satellite communications could not offer coverage in contested environments.

Cryptographic keys can now be created and securely distributed in real time during a mission.
