EECL Selected to Supply ESA-SSTL LNA Modules

 

EECL has signed a deal with Surrey Satellite Technology to design and deliver the front end LNA modules for the HydroGNSS Spacecraft which will provide measurements of key hydrological climate variables, including soil moisture, freeze–thaw state over permafrost, inundation and wetlands, and above-ground biomass, using a technique called Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) reflectometry.

 

In doing so it will complement missions such as ESA’s SMOS and Biomass, Copernicus Sentinel-1 and NASA’s SMAP.

EECLs First Hardware in Space is performing

 

On June 12, 2023, Transporter 8 celebrated a significant milestone with the 200th booster landing for SpaceX’s Falcon 9.

 

In addition, the mission marked the launch of the very first EECL-manufactured GNSS receiver for SpacePNT. The hardware is currently in orbit and operating as expected.

 

This achievement represents an exciting milestone in EECL’s journey, with many more EECL-designed and manufactured hardware launches on the horizon.
