The SSN tracks objects in space such as debris and both active and inactive satellites. The contract was awarded by U.S. Space Systems Command.
Anduril will be using its “Lattice” product, with a mesh networking capability. This will be to deploy the Space Domain Awareness Network (SDANet). It has previously demonstrated the system to U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command (SSC).
The Costa Mesa, California headquartered company writes:
“The Space Surveillance Network, a global web of ground-based sensors tracking key space assets and debris, needs modernization now more than ever. With Lattice, Anduril is providing a cutting-edge, resilient mesh communications architecture that links sensors, data repositories, and command and control nodes with low-latency, high-bandwidth connections.”
“Our commitment to meeting the SDANet mission requirements ensures that the U.S. Space Force has the tools to maintain space domain awareness and warfighting capabilities, both now and in the future.”
Full deployment of the system will be complete by the end of 2026, says Anduril.
The Space Surveillance Network is described as a global web of ground-based sensors tracking key space assets and debris.
