Ground Control Goes Cloud: The Digital Overhaul of Satellite Operations (2025–2030)

The satellite industry is undergoing a profound digital transformation as ground control “goes cloud.” Between 2025 and 2030, satellite ground segment operations are shifting from hardware-centric architectures to flexible, software-defined, cloud-enabled infrastructure. This trend is driven by the explosive growth in satellite deployments and demand for real-time data services, which traditional ground systems struggle to…

Bandwidth Wars: The High-Stakes Battle for High-Throughput Satellite Dominance (2025–2035)

HTS Technology Overview High-Throughput Satellites (HTS) are spaceborne relays designed to deliver dramatically higher data rates than traditional wide-beam satellites. They achieve this through numerous narrow spot-beams and advanced on-board processing, allowing aggressive frequency reuse. In practice, an HTS can deliver multiple times the throughput of a legacy FSS satellite using the same spectrum assets.publishing.service.gov.uk.…

Hyperspectral Eyes in the Sky: How Space-Based Imaging Is Revolutionizing Earth Observation

Imagine a satellite that not only takes pictures of Earth, but can also identify what materials compose each pixel of the image. This is the promise of hyperspectral imaging – a technology giving satellites “super-vision” across hundreds of colors beyond human sight. Hyperspectral sensors capture detailed spectral fingerprints of objects by measuring reflected light in…

Satellite Phones: Comprehensive Global FAQ

Satellite Phone Basics What is a satellite phone? A satellite phone (or satphone) is a mobile phone that connects directly to orbiting satellites instead of terrestrial cell towers. This means it can place calls and send messages from almost anywhere on Earth, especially in regions without cellular coverage. Like a regular cell phone, a satphone supports voice calling…
