​​Matt Magaña from Voyager Technologies discusses how partnerships can accelerate space innovation. Matt will explain why these collaborations are more crucial than ever, particularly in overcoming the "valley of death" through shared technology. He'll also touch on the challenges of government funding with OTAs and mission-based awards, and why building a robust space industrial base requires more conversation and investment.​

From agriculture to collision avoidance, space data is becoming continuously more important in decision-making and predictive analytics for many industries in going about their day-to-day tasks. In this podcast, hear Yudhajeet Dasgupta, Head of Solutions Architecture Aerospace and Satellite at AWS, share his knowledge on cloud computing for space and all the ways generative AI can help make life on earth more efficient for humanity.

On the Constellations podcast, the critical role of timing in both commercial and military applications is explored. Hear from David Mitlyng, CEO of Xairos as he discusses quantum communications as a next-gen timing solution. He explains how quantum hardware is more mature and practical than quantum computing and highlights quantum time transfer – the secure, precise delivery of time using entangled photons. David shares how this technology can be rapidly deployed at scale, integrated into satellites and ground systems. He also covers efforts around grandmaster clocks, the role of AI and the challenge of moving beyond GPS, which remains deeply embedded in today’s infrastructure.

In this episode, Awais Ahmed, founder and CEO of Pixxel, talks about building a constellation called Firefly, otherwise known as the “health monitor for the Earth.” Join us to learn about hyperspectral imagery, how access to it can support faster responses to environmental issues, and how its data can be used to provide insights on terrestrial changes that haven’t even happened yet.

The number of satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) is poised to explode over the coming years as more mega-constellations come online. This has the potential to bring rise to new potential threats in space. The massive scale of deployments is driving the need to leverage artificial intelligence to make better sense of the exponentially growing space domain. Listen to Slingshot Aerospace’s VP of Strategy and Policy, Audrey Schaffer as she discusses the role of AI for space domain awareness. Audrey shares insights on the new capabilities AI enables and how it is addressing some of the key challenges in space.

5G technology holds the promise of the seamless integration of satellite and telco networks – a critical development as the demand for global connectivity grows. Listen to a panel of experts discuss the convergence of satellite and telecommunications infrastructure from both a technology and a business case perspective.

Mega-constellations like Starlink are reshaping the satellite industry—and traditional operators are looking to gain competitive advantage. In this episode, Lluc Palerm, Research Director at Analysys Mason, shares key insights from a recent white paper on how software-ground systems can help legacy players compete. He will discuss what strategies can help operators thrive in the era of space disruption.

In this episode, Colonel Richard Kniseley from the Space Systems Command's Commercial Space Office (COMSO) delves into the U.S. military’s strategy for incorporating commercial space capabilities to strengthen national defense. Col. Kniseley outlines the "buy before build" approach, discusses the benefits of commercial services like satellite communications and tactical surveillance for military readiness, and highlights the growing role of industry partnerships in space domain awareness. Learn about the Commercial Augmentation Space Reserve (CASR) program and its tailored frameworks for commercial space providers, offering insights into how the U.S. Department of Defense is adapting its acquisition processes and funding models to accelerate innovation and meet evolving warfighter needs.
