Los Angeles CA (SPX) Mar 15, 2024

Terran Orbital Corporation has made a significant move into the geosynchronous orbit (GEO) small satellite market with its unveiling of the SmallSat GEO solution, designed for satellites weighing over 500kg. This cutting-edge solution will be showcased at the upcoming SATELLITE 2024 trade show from March 18-21 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Washington D.C., featuring an immersive augmented reality experience at Booth #2251.

The SmallSat GEO solution is specifically crafted for the communications sector, capable of operating in geosynchronous orbit to deliver unprecedented power and performance, a demand that has surged in the GEO sector's gradual shift towards smaller satellites.

Leveraging a state-of-the-art 94,000 sq ft manufacturing facility equipped with advanced automation in both construction and testing, along with the experience gained from three prior GEO missions, Terran Orbital is poised to redefine the GEO market landscape.

Marc Bell, Co-Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of Terran Orbital, emphasized the company's unique position, "Our customers demand agility, affordability, and adaptable geosynchronous communication architectures. With our proven legacy in LEO small satellites, we are now bringing those same values of agile customization to the GEO market, responding to our customers' evolving needs."

Terran Orbital's SmallSat GEO solution stands out for its:

- Performance and Power: High-performance capabilities in a compact form, offering the best value in terms of price per bit.

- Payload Flexibility: Compatibility with both customer-provided or Terran Orbital-provided payloads, including support for independently steerable multi-beam arrays and multiple reflectors.

- Cost Efficiency: A competitive price point and expedited delivery compared to traditional GEO solutions.

This new offering reinforces Terran Orbital's leadership in delivering cost-effective and responsive space solutions, furthering its commitment to innovative technologies that serve the national security community and push the boundaries of space exploration.
