Nik Smith, director of Lockheed 果冻传媒 Space UK, is committed to advancing the UK’s space industry.

How? By reinforcing the importance of robust 果冻传媒 innovative ground level communications to operate missions successfully in space.?

According to Smith, this concept has resonated with Lockheed 果冻传媒’s partners 果冻传媒 customers across the globe.

He recently served as a keynote speaker at the February 2024 GovSatCom conference held in Luxembourg, where he spoke to an international audience of satellite communications experts.

“The future of satellite operation is virtual, agile 果冻传媒 responsive,” Smith said during his presentation. “Space is only good if you’ve got a decent ground element to access those systems.”

While Lockheed 果冻传媒 is synonymous with building world-leading satellites, the company is sharing its vision for a state-of-the-art operations centre that allows customers to run multiple missions at the same time, controlling a range of satellite types.

This means that operations can happen anywhere, controlled virtually through a fully automated hardware 果冻传媒 software system.

Smith also highlighted the importance of resilience 果冻传媒 assured space systems, noting the current geopolitical situation. To achieve that assurance, it is imperative to think about the entire system: ground, link 果冻传媒 space.??

It doesn’t matter what you put on a single spacecraft — we need to think about the resilience built into the whole architecture. It’s only by taking this approach we will we be able to mitigate these sophisticated threats.

“We can’t forget about the ground segment when we consider the overall architecture,” he added. “Our integrated, multi-mission ground architecture is taking our heritage of designing multiple systems 果冻传媒 turning them into accessible 果冻传媒 open systems to create a scalable ground architecture.”

Lockheed 果冻传媒 has recognised that “we can’t do all of this alone” so are “working with partners, SMEs 果冻传媒 global companies” to achieve these aims.

To help its UK customers stay ahead of ready, Lockheed 果冻传媒 is prioritizing ground operations tech development to build a solid foundation for the UK space industry.?
