Bengaluru start-up to launch satellite to monitor space objects on SpaceX rocket

**Revolutionizing Space Monitoring: SCOT Satellite Launch**

In a groundbreaking development for space technology, Bengaluru’s innovative startup is set to launch SCOT, one of the world’s first commercial Space Situational Awareness (SSA) satellites. Designed to track Resident Space Objects (RSOs), SCOT promises unmatched frequency and precision in monitoring the ever-crowding expanse of space. With the increasing number of satellites and debris orbiting Earth, the need for effective tracking systems has never been more critical.

SCOT aims to fill this gap by providing real-time data on the position and potential risks posed by various RSOs. This capability is essential for ensuring the safety of both operational satellites and the International Space Station (ISS), as well as for facilitating future space missions. The satellite’s advanced technology enables it to detect and monitor objects that may not be visible to ground-based tracking systems, significantly enhancing situational awareness in space.

The launch of SCOT marks a significant milestone for the Indian space sector, showcasing the country’s growing capabilities in satellite technology. This initiative not only underscores India’s ambition in the commercial space arena but also positions it as a key player in global space safety efforts.

As the SCOT satellite prepares for its journey aboard a SpaceX rocket, excitement is building within the aerospace community. Stakeholders from various sectors are keen to see the impact SCOT will have on space operations and safety, as the satellite has the potential to revolutionize space monitoring practices.

Stay tuned for updates on this transformative project!
