A PDR ensures the design and basic system architecture are complete and that there is technical confidence the capability need can be satisfied within cost and schedule goals. A successful PDR means that a satellite is on track and development is progressing as planned.
The LS satellites are partially 3D manufactured Low Earth Orbit (LEO) microsatellites focused on rapid, cost-effective development and testing of upcoming innovative spacecraft technologies for multiple customers and space-based data collection. LS is a 100kg (220-pound) satellite with space to rapidly integrate customer sensors and technologies.
"Our Sidus Space engineers did an excellent job preparing for and executing the PDR, and we are following up with briefings to our payload partners and strategic teammates," said Jamie Adams, Chief Technology Officer for Sidus Space.
"With the PDR complete, our engineering team is one step closer to finalizing and readying for the initial launch in a planned fleet of 100 satellites capable of hosting a variety of custom payloads for a variety of customer missions and collecting space-based data for multiple industries."
