Summary
The ReOrbit Gluon Lite is a microsatellite platform optimized for high autonomy, fault tolerance and in-orbit networking. It is designed for LEO orbits, particularly for Earth Observation (EO) constellations.
The design follows a payload-agnostic approach, maximizing service availability and cost effectiveness.
Key features
- Software-defined architecture & modular avionics
- Reconfigurable in-orbit
- Precision ADCS - Optical Communications Capable
- X-Band electronically steerable phased array
- Rideshare-ready
- Autonomous Orbit Keeping and FDIR (Failure Detection and Recovery)
- Minimal NRE (Non-Recurring Engineering)
Customizations
The Gluon family is scalable up to 500 kg platforms, for missions well beyond LEO (MEO, GEO and Deep Space):
