About us
Samara Aerospace’s mission is to fundamentally change how satellites are designed with our Hummingbird satellite bus, enabled by the revolutionary new pointing control technology, called MSAC. MSAC allows us to not only make Hummingbird thinner, lighter, and more rapidly producible than alternatives on the market, but also bring levels of pointing performance currently only available to the James Webb Space Telescope to the commercial Earth orbit market. This will unlock next-level image quality for Earth observing satellites, higher data rates for space-based Internet, and increased launch capacity for our strained launch infrastructure.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that we’ve been awarded a $275k Phase 1 STTR grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF), partnered with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign! The goal of this award will be to produce a flight-capable demonstrator of our Multifunctional Structures for Attitude Control (MSAC) system, the next generation of satellite pointing control technology. MSAC will enable thinner, lighter satellites with far greater pointing stability. This will unlock higher resolution Earth imagery, faster space-based Internet, and an overall lower cost to deploy assets to space. The result of this Phase 1 award will be a more reliable, efficient, and industry-ready MSAC system, as well as the opportunity for a $1.5M Phase 2 grant from NSF. This would allow Samara to launch our spacecraft into orbit, providing critical data and flight heritage. More info here: https://lnkd.in/gqpzQRsW Looking forward to the next chapter of Samara Aerospace this unlocks. MORE big announcements coming soon!
