"GuardianSat: Securing Satellites with Innovative Self-Defense Tech"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by SpaceNews
Startup GuardianSat has been awarded a research grant from the National Science Foundation's America's Seed Fund to further develop its technology aimed at protecting satellites from collisions with space debris. The company's patented solution includes a debris-avoidance system for high Earth-orbiting satellites, which detects orbital debris, tracks potential collision threats, and autonomously adjusts the satellite's course to prevent accidents. The grant will enable GuardianSat to advance the development of its space domain awareness and avoidance systems, which are designed to keep space open and safe.
