Ensure Mission Success

Protect the Assets

Ansys software offers precise orbit determination and collision analysis, enhancing data quality through tracking system simulations across various assets.

Protecting Space Missions Today and in the Future

With space becoming increasingly crowded, it will only become more important to ensure that spacecraft can safely navigate this environment. Learn how engineers can use Ansys software solutions to detect and assess potential collisions in space by tracking space objects, characterizing their maneuvers, and evaluating the degree of risk.
  • Safeguard Operational Integrity

    The growing congestion of satellites and debris makes space situational awareness (SSA) and space domain awareness (SDA) essential for ensuring mission safety in the space industry.
  • Enable Flexible and Comprehensive On-Orbit Maneuverability and Servicing

    Modern space missions require flexibility for satellite adaptability, collision avoidance, and extended lifespan through ISAM operations, benefiting both commercial and defense sectors.
  • Develop Dependable Radion-Hardened (Rad Hard) Electronics

    Data analysis and Ansys software enhance space safety by ensuring situational awareness, maneuverability, and reliability of electronics against harsh conditions in increasingly congested orbits.
