Scout Space Inc., a prominent provider of in-space observation services and Space Domain Awareness (SDA), has been selected for the U.S. Space Systems Command's Space Domain Awareness (SDA) Tools Applications and Processing (TAP) Lab Apollo Accelerator Cohort 4. Scout will concentrate on generating attitude change patterns for individual satellites using orbital data. The program starts on August 6th, 2024.

The SDA Tap Lab is an innovative initiative aimed at improving Space Domain Awareness capabilities by addressing key challenges. Scout will utilize its in-space observation and data analytics expertise to develop solutions that detect and characterize changes in satellite orientation, including movements of both the satellite bus and payload.

Philip Hover-Smoot, Chief Executive Officer at Scout Space, stated, "Our participation in the SDA Tap Lab reflects our commitment to advancing Space Domain Awareness and enhancing the safety and sustainability of space operations. By focusing on satellite attitude change detection, we aim to provide critical insights into satellite behavior, which will significantly benefit both commercial and governmental stakeholders."

Throughout the three-month TAP Lab cycle, Scout will analyze orbital data to identify and characterize changes in the orientation of satellite buses and payloads. This capability is crucial for understanding satellite operations, ensuring collision avoidance, and maintaining the overall health of the space environment.

Scout Space is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of space observation and SDA. The company's involvement in the SDA Tap Lab represents a significant step forward in its mission to provide comprehensive and actionable insights that enhance Space Domain Awareness operations.
