Betzdorf (pta037/25.10.2022/16:00 UTC+2)
LuxSpace, a subsidiary of space and technology group OHB SE, and the Universität der Bundeswehr München (University of German Armed Forces Munich) just signed a contract for the SeRANIS (Seamless Radio Access Network for Internet of Space) small satellite mission. This mission provides the world's first publicly accessible multifunctional experimental laboratory in orbit and will use the LuxSpace built Triton-X heavy platform which enables the integration of all SeRANIS experimental payloads on one platform.
SeRANIS is a small satellite mission with 15 experiments which are to explore key and future technologies in various fields, including sixth-generation mobile communication systems, laser communication and Internet of Things. "With the goal to create a multi-functional experimental laboratory on one satellite, the SeRANIS mission is unique and substantially different from traditional "CubeSat" based research approaches. Due to the high complexity of this mission, a reliable and agile platform is needed. The Triton-X heavy platform prevailed in our call for tenders," said SeRANIS project leader, Prof. Dr. Andreas Knopp, Professor Space Research Center, Universität der Bundeswehr München. The SeRANIS mission has two aims: Paving the way for the Bundeswehr's access to new capabilities in the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and offering an orbital lab for the German research community."
"LuxSpace is proud and enthusiastic to be part of the SeRANIS mission with our high performance and scalable Triton-X platform. The variety of innovative technologies and payloads aboard SeRANIS is an ideal fit for our multi-mission platform," said Edgar Milic, CEO of LuxSpace.
