InsureSat Phase II Proposal for Space Pitch Day

Chandah Space Technologies (CST) intends to submit for the Air Force Space Pitch Day. CST is developing a constellation of small satellites in geosynchronous orbit designed to address key problems faced by commercial satellite owners/operators in managing their assets in orbit including identification of anomalies, space situational awareness, and space weather monitoring. CST's business model allows the company to leverage US private capital to service both commercial geostationary satellite operator demand as well as potential US Government (USG) demand. Through Phase II of this SBIR, CST will advance its satellite design process by developing a FlatSat model of the satellite which will serve as a hardware and software integration test bed. As part of this process, CST will develop a design and development plan for FlatSat including a preliminary design review (PDR) and a critical design review (CDR), will procure critical hardware and software identified in the CDR, will integrate the hardware, software, and develop a simulation model of the rest of the spacecraft, and develop and perform demonstration scenarios for the Air Force customer.
