CubeSat platforms
Alén Space's 3U, 6U and 12U satellite platforms, which carry Sateliot's 5G IoT payloads and ESA's Celeste navigation test signals.
Why it matters
Constellation operators need many identical satellites built quickly. Alén says it built Sateliot's latest five in half the time of the previous batch.
How the technology works
Each platform supplies structure, power, an onboard computer, attitude control and radios, and the customer's payload goes inside. For Draconis, Alén upgraded the onboard computer, attitude control and radiation-tolerant memory.
