JoeySat was developed under the Sunrise Partnership Project between the European Space Agency and OneWeb.
JoeySat is part of End-to-End system validations that will test features including 0.005 kg pilot tests in collaboration with University of Surrey UK, Celestia UK, and Satixfy UK.
JoeySat uses the same satellite platform as OneWeb’s 150-kilogram Gen 1 spacecraft.
JoeySat was developed under the Sunrise Partnership Project between the European Space Agency and telecommunications operator OneWeb with support from the UK Space Agency.
Celestia UK’s eScan technology tracked and continuously received and processed a downlink signal from the LEO satellite JoeySat operated by Eutelsat OneWeb.
SatixFy of Israel built JoeySat’s payload with support from the European Space Agency and the UK Space Agency for assembly by Airbus OneWeb Satellites.
One of the satellites launched for OneWeb, JoeySat, is designed to test capabilities for a second-generation constellation that OneWeb could begin deploying as soon as 2025.
JoeySat was developed under a £32 million grant from the UK Space Agency via the Sunrise Partnership between the European Space Agency and OneWeb.
The UK Space Agency invested more than £50 million into the JoeySat mission to fund the satellite technology and the development of a wider ecosystem for a reliable end-to-end service.
The UK Space Agency provided more than £50 million to fund the technology behind JoeySat and development of a wider ecosystem for an end-to-end service.
The Proto-1 Gateway developed by Celestia UK used beam steering capability to track and process signals from JoeySat during multiple passes over Dundee Satellite Station.
