Startical's global coverage removes the limitations of current transoceanic flights, allowing aircraft to operate over oceans and isolated regions with the same efficiency as in continental airspace.
The satellite data communications of Startical improve air traffic efficiency through predefined messages, reducing controller workload and increasing aviation safety.
Startical has established itself as the first company capable of offering voice and data VHF communications from space.
In May, Startical completed the first real-time voice communication via satellite between a pilot and an air traffic controller.
Startical has chosen NanoAvionics’s MP42 microsatellite bus, which weighs approximately 110 kg, for a series of tests lasting six months.
NanoAvionics will provide the MP42 bus, integrate the payload, and perform the launch and first mission operations for Startical’s test mission.
Startical will use a satellite produced by Kongsberg NanoAvionics to test the systems of its future constellation of over 270 satellites intended to provide air traffic services from space.
Startical and Indra will use a satellite produced by Kongsberg NanoAvionics to test the systems of Startical’s future constellation of more than 270 smallsats that are set to provide air traffic services from space.
Startical has chosen NanoAvionics’s MP42 microsatellite bus, which weighs approximately 110 kg, for a series of tests lasting six months.
Startical aims to build and launch a satellite platform that will expand surveillance and communication coverage with aircraft, especially over vast oceanic or remote areas without coverage from ground-based air navigation infrastructure systems.
Kongsberg NanoAvionics will provide the MP42 bus, integrate the payload, and launch and execute the first mission operations to enable Startical’s experts to manage the ATM systems onboard.
Startical ordered a 20-kilogram satellite from GomSpace and a 110-kilogram satellite from Kongsberg NanoAvionics as the first of more than 270 spacecraft planned for low Earth orbit.
Indra and Enaire selected GomSpace A/S to develop advanced satellites for global air traffic management under the Startical consortium.
GomSpace A/S has been selected by Indra and Enaire’s Startical consortium to deliver a large-scale development and demonstration project for global air traffic management from space.
The GomSpace contract with Indra disclosed on 2021-05-10 is estimated to be worth EUR 14.5 million and concerns the Startical project.
The Startical project was announced by Indra and Enaire on 2021-05-18.
