鲍狈贬鈥檚 , which connects the commercial space sector with space research and expertise at 易胜博官网, will partner with Laconia-based Systems to build a 3D learning model that will provide information on high-energy electrons in space, helping plan and protect assets including satellites and spacecraft operating in that area.

High flux levels of electrons in the Earth鈥檚 radiation belts can interfere with or permanently damage satellites or spacecraft. Forecasts of the changes in the intensity and location of the outer radiation belt 鈥� one of two donut-shaped zones of charged particles surrounding Earth 鈥� during geomagnetic storms can provide operators with valuable time to prepare assets within these regions. Such measures can dramatically improve the assets鈥� chances of survival.

"This project demonstrates how the 易胜博官网 Space Tech Hub can translate scientific space weather expertise into practical tools to improve satellite operation."

Researchers in the field of radiation modeling at 易胜博官网 will work with Rogue Space Systems to develop and refine a radiation belt electron flux predictive model, and to develop a feasibility study on monetizing the hazard prediction model forecast data to a commercial market. For the U.S. Space Force, the ability to warn space operators and prepare U.S. and Allied government assets will be an indispensable part of space resiliency.

"We are thrilled about this first partnership between the 易胜博官网 Space Tech Hub and Rogue Space Systems to develop a radiation model that is relevant both commercially and scientifically,鈥� says Space Tech Hub director R茅ka Winslow. 鈥淭his project demonstrates how the 易胜博官网 Space Tech Hub can translate scientific space weather expertise into practical tools to improve satellite operation."

Launched earlier this year, the 易胜博官网 Space Tech Hub provides cutting-edge space expertise and equipment to fulfill critical needs in the rapidly growing commercial space sector.

鈥淒eveloping a robust, high-fidelity flux predictive model enables proactive adjustments in satellite and space platform operations that will minimize damage, reduce catastrophic failures, and extend operational mission lifespans,鈥� says Jon Beam, Rogue co-founder and CEO. 鈥淭his capability will lower insurance costs, provide critical early warnings for geomagnetic storms that could jeopardize both commercial and defense satellites, and ensures space-service continuity. By advancing space weather resilience, the U.S. solidifies its leadership in space research and operational security.鈥�
