Flight Software

The Flight Software pole develops the onboard software that runs on the satellite’s computer and drives its behavior throughout the mission.

It receives commands from ground, coordinates all subsystems, manages data and communications, and ensures the satellite operates safely and reliably. The team also builds and operates a simulation and testing platform to validate this software in realistic conditions, including injecting anomalies and reproducing mission scenarios, before launch.

Key Roles

  1. Develop the software operating the satellite, which runs on the OBC and manages the interactions between all subsystems.
  2. Build a platform to test that software in realistic conditions.
