Oneliner	WARPSPACE shall provide the LEO satellite operators with optical ommunication service. We assure real time communication. Downlink the data whenever you want, wherever you are.
Notes	ReOrbit has successfully completed the preliminary design review (PDR) of WARPSPACE’s WarpHub InterSat constellation, a 3-satellite mission for an optical data relay service in medium Earth orbit (MEO). The satellites are based on ReOrbit’s satellite platform Gluon, an advanced software-defined platform, optimised for autonomy, fault-tolerance, and on-orbit networking. Now, entering the next phase of the development, the design will be finalised and reviewed in mid-2022 in a critical design review (CDR). The first satellite is planned to reach its final orbit by the end of 2023, after launch and orbital adjustments. WARPSPACE, which is building a high-speed optical laser communication network in space, and Synspective, which provides solutions through satellite data analysis, develops and operates small SAR satellites, and provides SAR data, have agreed to proceed with technical verification using software to analyze data acquisition frequency and speed when using an optical laser communication network.
