Sidus will host the Star Tracker as a part of its payload
rideshare program. This payload rideshare is available for
customers to launch and test their own technology aboard Sidus’
satellites. As a part of the program, Sidus will provide space
aboard its LizzieSatTM satellite, along with launch support,
testing, and the ability to conduct experiments over the expected
five-year timeline of the mission, with the goal of evaluating the
Star Tracker’s capabilities for the broader satellite sensor
market.
Star trackers are used to determine a satellite’s orientation
and position in space. SOLAR MEMS is a leader in Sun Sensor
technologies for small and medium spacecraft. Its Star Tracker is
autonomous and will be used to capture images of star
constellations to help determine the accuracy of star locations and
use that information to determine the satellite's orientation with
respect to the Earth. Its robustness is based on highly used COTS
devices together with space grade parts, and it is plug & play,
so it does not need any additional electronic support or module for
operating.
“Sidus is pleased to be selected by SOLAR MEMS as a trusted
mission partner to host its Star Tracker, which uses the highest
level of technological innovation to determine constellation
locations,” commented Carol Craig, Sidus’ Founder and CEO.
“Including SOLAR MEMS Star Tracker in our payload rideshare program
is a natural fit with our emerging high-margin, recurring revenue,
DaaS business, and we look forward to collaborating with SOLAR MEMS
on this project.”
