In this episode, we'll talk about the evolving role of GPS and global navigation systems in an increasingly complex and contested environment. Hear from Lisa Dyer, Executive Director of the GPS Alliance, who will talk about why resilience, interoperability and innovation across multiple GNSS constellations are becoming essential for both national security and commerce. Hear Lisa discuss the future of GPS and GNSS for policymakers, industry, and operators working to ensure trusted positioning, navigation, and timing.

As we near the close of 2025, it's a pivotal moment to reflect on this past year and the advances and changes that have impacted the industry.

From the introduction of Golden Dome, expansion of Starlink's dominance, growth in Direct-to-Device (D2D) to sovereignty becoming a driving force for nation states—2025 has been a whirlwind. How will these trends shape 2026 and beyond?

To help us break down the most significant happenings and provide expert insight into what it all means for our industry, we are joined by Chris Quilty, Co-CEO & President and Caleb Henry, Director of Research for Quilty Space, a global leader in space sector business intelligence.

Space is getting crowded, how do we avoid conjunctions? In this episode of Constellations, Kayhan Space CEO, Dr. Siamak Hesar, joins to discuss how operators can stay ahead of risk as the orbital environment grows more crowded and complex. He shares practical insights on collision avoidance, real time data integration and the value of AI tools that help fleets make faster, smarter operational decisions. It is a forward-looking conversation about how the industry can work together to keep space safe, sustainable and mission ready.

As the lines between commercial innovation and national defense blur, America's space industrial base is transforming. In this episode of Constellations, Peter Krauss, President and CEO of Terran Orbital, emphasizes the importance of rapid iteration and accelerated development to build and deploy on-orbit assets more efficiently. Speed is the primary transformation reshaping the industry, driven largely by the realities of contested space. Hear Peter talk about this and what keeps him up at night.

With more than 50% of the Earth covered in clouds on any given day, the ability to provide real-time insights about what is happening on the ground becomes complicated and nearly impossible. Listen in as Aubrey Dunne – co-founder and CTO at Ubotica - shares his knowledge on AI-based intelligence, cloud detection and removal for Earth observation satellites that deliver insights about what's happening on Earth now.

In today's satellite industry, the ability to refuel satellites in orbit is key to building a dynamic space operation. As space mobility and logistics become more advanced, refueling in GEO will give a significant advantage to military customers and commercial operators. Will Armijo, VP of Space Systems at Orion Space Solutions, breaks down the path to robust refueling technology.

In today's rapidly changing world there are threats, natural disasters and environmental changes that can occur without notice that can negatively impact business and government operations. Delivering persistent, high-resolution insights anytime and anywhere using remote sensing is critical. Listen to this episode to better understand the powerful capabilities of high-resolution SAR imaging.

As satellites become more maneuverable and denial strategies evolve, orbit selection and agility are shaping the future of space advantage. In this episode, Tom Campbell, President of Space Missions at Redwire joins us to discuss the benefits of various orbital regimes, the role of maneuverability in maintaining resilience and how technology is enabling new strategies for contested space.

SpaceX has an outsized influence on the satellite industry as the preeminent launch provider. But in 2024, revenue from Starlink outstripped launch for the first time. Grace Khanuja, Manager at Novaspace, discusses Novaspace's biannual report on SpaceX, the growing verticals that SpaceX will likely target in the next few years, and what it will take for satcom to compete with fiber.

Did you know that a graphing calculator has more processing power than most satellites? In this episode, hear how Edward Ge, Co-Founder and CEO of Aethero, is working to change all of that by building the next generation of space-grade computers for computationally heavy space missions. Listen as he shared the details on what it takes to build powerful compute for space, how it benefits the industry and some of the challenges still ahead.
