We offer space missions as a service for payloads looking for platforms with co-development of the payload, launch and regulation, as well as operationsOpen Cosmos provides turnkey small satellite missions from mission definition, payload development support, satellite AITV, launch and licensing to operations.
We propose three solutions:
- mission definition using beeApp. This a mission definition software (power and link budgets, visibility, coverage, etc).
- payload development kit using beeKit. This is an engineering model of the platform for instrument design, test and qualification. It includes the above beeApp service for hardware-in-the-loop testing.
- beeSat, a modular 3U-6U-12U reliable nanosatellite platform.

The beeApp and beeKit fit easily within the budget of Fast Track or Pathfinder.
A full 3U mission can be accommodated within the Flagship funding.
