Space Compass

JP

Space Compass is a Japanese joint venture between NTT and SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation. It focuses on building a "Space Integrated Computing Network," which integrates terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks using optical laser communication. Their services include optical data relay for Earth observation satellites and direct-to-device communication via High Altitude Platform Stations (HAPS). Key partners include the ESA, Microsoft, and Airbus, with the Japanese Ministry of Defense as a customer.
