GalaxEye acquires Bengaluru-based spacecraft engineering company StarOps
The integration reportedly brings StarOps’ proprietary technologies, qualified satellite platforms and deep systems engineering expertise, along with an experienced engineering team, several of whom previously worked at TeamIndus on the Lunar Lander and Rover.
AI actually flying on spacecraft today is a narrow fix for one physical problem, not machine judgment: a Mars rover picks its own laser targets with 93 percent accuracy, and one satellite's entire first AI experiment was built by a single engineer in under two weeks
I’ve spent the last few days reading through how AI actually gets used on spacecraft, as opposed to how it gets talked about, and the honest version of the story turns out to be less dramatic and more interesting than the headlines around it. Almost none of what’s flying today looks like a spacecraft making judgment calls the way a person would. What it looks like, again and again, is engineers using a narrow, carefully bounded piece of software…
Indian space technology startup GalaxEye acquires StarOps
The integration adds a strong portfolio of indigenous spacecraft technologies and engineering know-how to GalaxEye. These include qualified satellite bus platforms across the 50 kg, 150 kg and 250 kg classes, proprietary subsystem technologies, qualification heritage, testing infrastructure and engineering tools.
