Mission History
Below is a listing of previous Astrotech Space Operations missions.
The Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) is a NASA satellite mission intended to provide global space-based observations of atmospheric carbon dioxide.
COSMO-3 is the third satellite of the COSMO-SkyMed (Constellation of Small Satellites for Mediterranean basin Observation) constellation.
The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission science objective is to discover the nature of the interactions between the solar wind and the interstellar medium at the edge of our solar system.
Galaxy 19 will offer government and network customers refreshed capacity, with seamless data communications for years to come.
GeoEye-1 is part of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) NextView program. The NextView program is designed to ensure that the NGA has access to commercial imagery in support of its mission to provide timely, relevant and accurate geospatial intelligence in support of national security.
The EchoStar XI spacecraft is designed for an orbital service life of 15 years, with 20kW of power to support the expansion of DISH Network's capacity and capabilities to customers throughout the United States.
The Ocean Surface Topography Mission (OSTM) on the Jason-2 satellite is an international Earth observation satellite mission that continues the sea surface height measurements begun in 1992 by the joint NASA/CNES TOPEX/Poseidon mission and followed by the NASA/CNES Jason-1 mission launched in 2001.
GLAST, now renamed the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, is a space observatory being used to perform gamma-ray astronomy observations from low Earth orbit.
The Galaxy-18 satellite will enable Intelsat to provide advanced cable television, data and telecommunications services to customers throughout North America, Puerto Rico and Hawaii.
ICO G1 will provide S band mobile communications for satellite phones. It is the heaviest satellite to be launched by an Atlas rocket, and the heaviest single commercial satellite to be launched into a geosynchronous transfer orbit.
The satellite is designed to optimize DirecTV's advanced transmission techniques and state-of-the-art video compression technology for delivering national high-definition (HD) programming and local HD channels to subscribers throughout the United States.
The mobile communications satellite will expand Thuraya's network coverage to include all key markets of the Asia-Pacific region.
The overall objective of the COSMO program is global Earth observation and relevant data responding to the needs of the military and scientific community, as well as to the public demand for environmental control.
WGS-1 is a high capacity satellite communications system planned for use in partnership by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) and the Australian Department of Defense.
Dawn's goal is to characterize the conditions and processes of the solar system's earliest epoch by investigating in detail two of the largest protoplanets remaining intact since their formations.
WorldView-1 is a commercial earth observation satellite owned by DigitalGlobe. The satellite will free capacity on DigitalGlobe’s QuickBird satellite to meet the growing commercial demand for multi-spectral geospatial imagery.
As the very first of NASA's Mars Scout class, Phoenix combines legacy and innovation in a framework of a true partnership: government, academia, and industry.
COSMO-SkyMed is an Earth observation satellite system funded by the Italian Ministry of Research and Ministry of Defence and conducted by the Italian Space Agency (ASI), intended for both military and civilian use.
STP-1 was the first time the Air Force launched six unique satellites at once. The six spacecraft represent a wide variety of scientific experiments and technology demonstrations from across the DOD, including the Air Force, Navy, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the Department of Energy.
The Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) mission is a constellation of five NASA satellites to study energy releases from Earth's magnetosphere, known as substorms. These magnetic phenomena intensify auroras near Earth's poles.
