Quantum Space Unveils Scout-1 Satellite and Sentry Mission for Cislunar Network

Quantum Space plans to launch its first satellite, Scout-1, in March 2024 as part of its QuantumNet constellation, which aims to provide communications, navigation, and space situational awareness services in geostationary and cislunar space. The Scout-1 satellite will test a sensor that will track resident space objects and demonstrate communications between Quantum Space's ground and space infrastructures. The two-year Sentry mission will refine image-processing algorithms and serve as a stepping stone towards expanding into cislunar space. Quantum Space aims to support deep space commerce, national security, and scientific exploration by building the necessary infrastructure.
