Myriota uses Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF9151 system-on-chip microarchitecture in a primary technical partnership for HyperPulse.

Myriota’s HyperPulse network has changed from a satellite-only network to a hybrid dual-mode infrastructure framework.

Myriota’s HyperPulse network complies with 3GPP Release 17 non-terrestrial network standards for Narrowband IoT NTN.

Myriota’s HyperPulse space segment relies on a constellation of geostationary earth orbit satellites operated through an institutional capacity-sharing partnership with Viasat.

AssetHawk includes an integrated Bluetooth Low Energy gateway module that uses passive scanning architectures.

ABI Research projects global IoT connections using non-terrestrial network standards will grow from 2.08 million in 2024 to about 14 million by 2032.

AssetHawk uses two standard internal AA batteries and can operate for up to 10 years depending on message frequency configurations.

Myriota released AssetHawk as a ruggedized, battery-powered hardware tracker for its upgraded hybrid service.

NASA’s CSDA program vehicle has a maximum cumulative valuation of $476 million and an active performance window through November 15, 2028.

Kuva US will supply high-resolution hyperspectral data products to civil researchers, public-sector stakeholders, and federal environmental scientists under NASA’s CSDA On-Ramp 2 contract.

The CSDA On-Ramp 2 contract is a multiple-award, Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity contract that lets Kuva US compete for future NASA task orders.

Kuva Space is actively manufacturing its planned Hyperfield microsatellite constellation.

Kuva Space’s Hyperfield constellation is designed to deliver automated, intra-daily global revisits by 2030.

NASA selected Kuva US, Inc. under the Commercial Satellite Data Acquisition (CSDA) On-Ramp 2 procurement vehicle on July 1, 2026.

Kuva US, Inc. is the domestic subsidiary of Finnish hyperspectral Earth observation company Kuva Space.

Kuva Space is the single hyperspectral payload provider selected for the European Space Agency’s Emerging Copernicus Contributing Missions portfolio.

Kuva Space is one of the few dedicated hyperspectral imaging operators validated for major public-sector Earth observation programs on both sides of the Atlantic.

Kuva Space aims to turn hyperspectral imagery into material-identification alerts for commercial and government defense clients within hours of an orbital pass.

Kuva Space uses Ground-Station-as-a-Service models with cloud-decoupled data downlinks to ingest raw orbital data into centralized cloud hosting environments.

Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lander is intended to provide rapid, repeatable access to the lunar surface.

The Firefly Aerospace contract marks the company's sixth contracted lunar mission.

NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services program buys commercial transportation services to send scientific and technological instruments to the lunar surface.

Firefly Aerospace has a $144 million NASA Commercial Lunar Payload Services contract to use its Blue Ghost lander to deliver three science instruments to the Moon's near side.

Ground controllers powered up Canadarm2 after the astronauts secured the new hardware and reconnected the electrical interfaces.

During the spacewalk, Chris Williams and Jessica Meir detached Canadarm2’s latching end effector to access the failed joint.

NASA astronauts Chris Williams and Jessica Meir completed a seven-hour and 20-minute spacewalk on June 30 to replace a malfunctioning wrist joint on the International Space Station’s Canadarm2.

Canadarm2 experienced an elevated motor current and failed to move as expected on May 27.

During the repair, the astronauts detached Canadarm2’s latching end effector to access the failed joint.

A fully operational Canadarm2 will resume capturing cargo vessels and supporting external maintenance.

NASA and the Canadian Space Agency will return the replaced joint for ground-based engineering analysis and possible refurbishment.

The robotics flight control team in Houston verified that Canadarm2 was receiving two functional strings of power and data.

The astronauts used pistol grip tools to unthread multiple expandable diameter fasteners during the Canadarm2 repair.

Mission managers determined that the 25-year-old Canadarm2 system required an extravehicular activity to restore full operational capacity.

Canadarm2 experienced elevated motor current and failed to move as expected on May 27.

The astronauts removed joint number five and installed a spare joint stored on the exterior of the International Space Station.

Mission managers determined that the 25-year-old Canadarm2 system required an extravehicular activity to swap the joint and restore full operational capacity.

Jessica Meir resolved a free-spinning fastener during the joint installation by applying direct axial force to properly thread the bolt.

Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jenni Gibbons guided the Canadarm2 repair from Mission Control in Houston.

Canadarm2 will resume capturing cargo vessels and supporting external maintenance after full operational checks are completed.

The failed Canadarm2 component was joint number five, and the replacement part was stored on the exterior of the International Space Station.

NASA and the Canadian Space Agency will return the replaced Canadarm2 joint for ground-based engineering analysis and possible refurbishment.

Ground controllers powered up Canadarm2 after the new hardware was secured and the electrical interfaces were reconnected.

NASA plans to seek industry proposals for landers to deliver a power and avionics technology demonstration, an unspecified science manifest, and an optical payload to the lunar surface.

Blue Origin plans to fly New Glenn again this year.

NASA awarded Astrobotic Technology two Peregrine missions worth $297.9 million in new CLPS contracts.

NASA wants the CLPS vendors to fly updated versions of already-flown lander designs to support monthly landings with NASA payloads.

NASA awarded Intuitive Machines a Nova-C mission worth $148.3 million in new CLPS contracts.

NASA plans to share an open solicitation for Moon Base technology demonstrations.

NASA has awarded Blue Origin several Moon contracts.

NASA plans to seek a lunar communication and navigation relay constellation to improve communication between Moon Base elements and Earth.
