Space Domain Awareness

Keeping vigilant eyes on the skies around the clock.

Space Domain Awareness (SDA) is essential for ensuring the safety, security, and sustainability of space operations. Our global network of over 350 ground-based telescopes provides real-time data on satellites, debris, and potential threats, delivering highly accurate information on the positions and trajectories of space objects. As the space environment grows increasingly congested, our unparalleled capabilities enable early anomaly detection, rapid threat response, and data-driven decision-making—protecting space assets and supporting the long-term viability of space activities.

For more than a decade, we have continuously monitored space operations in high-altitude orbits, creating a comprehensive database of billions of correlated observations with high-quality astrometric and photometric measurement data. This rich dataset is expertly labeled with critical events, including detected maneuvers, stability changes, astrometric anomalies, photometric irregularities, and more.

Our Global Telescope Network

The ExoAnalytic Global Telescope Network (EGTN) represents a pioneering effort in advancing space domain awareness. Through a distributed network of 350-plus autonomous telescopes strategically positioned around the world, we harness the power of our state-of-the art image processing technology, providing real-time astrometric and photometric data for high-altitude, earth-orbiting satellites and debris. Presently, the EGTN stands as the world’s largest commercial optical telescope network, enabling mission-critical capabilities that meet the diverse needs of defense, intelligence, and commercial satellite operators.
