Nano Satellite Market: Overview

Deployment of large number of Nano satellite constellations depends on significant cost reductions and is projected to be in orbit within next few years. Reportedly, Nano satellite refers to tiny artificial satellites that weigh between 1 to 10 kgs and are of size of human hand. These satellites travel at higher speeds and are utilized for myriad purposes including remote sensing, communications, and land observations. Moreover, they encircle the earth in polar orbit and always operate in same way as conventional satellite at reduced costs. Reportedly, in beginning, Nano satellites were developed for research projects. However, cost-effective aspect of Nano satellite technology has attracted entrepreneurs in countries such as Australia who are trying to build nanofabrication capability.

Furthermore, these products are light in weight, easy to build, test, & launch, and obey Moore’s law. They are capable of performing complex computational operations. Nano satellites comprise of various kinds of software, hardware, and other data processing components. For the record, Nano satellites are utilized for navigation, scientific research, and geographical mapping. Data derived from Nano satellites can be easily processed and utilized for carrying out defense operations, biological tests, and earth observations along with aiding various other space applications. Large numbers of Nano satellite constellations are deployed in low earth orbits below 2,000 kilometers
