摘要

PlanetiQ announced June 24 that it has selected a Colorado company to build its planned constellation of small satellites to provide weather data, with the first satellites to be launched in late 2016. Bethesda, Maryland-based PlanetiQ said Blue Canyon Technologies of Boulder, Colorado, will build a set of 12 satellites, each carrying a Global Positioning System radio occultation payload. The companies did not disclose the value of the contract. The satellites, PlanetiQ President and Chief Executive Anne Hale Miglarese said in an interview, will be six-unit cubesats with onboard propulsion, each weighing less than 20 kilograms. The satellites will operate in orbits of 750 to 800 kilometers at an inclination of 72 degrees. The current spacecraft design is considerably smaller than the company's original concepts, which weighed in at more than 120 kilograms. "We've been through many iterations on this spacecraft," Miglarese said. "We are very confident that we have the right spacecraft."
