REAL-TIME TARGET IDENTIFICATION AND TRACKING THROUGH EDGE COMPUTING
AUTONOMOUS ATTITUDE CONTROL AND NAVIGATION SYSTEMS
ONLY EUROPEAN SATELLITE ON BOARD SLS
LONG LAST PERFORMANCE IN DEEP SPACE
ArgoMoon is a microsatellite designed, built, and operated by Argotec that flew on NASA’s Artemis 1 mission. The satellite was funded by Italian Space Agency (ASI).
Following a rigorous selection process conducted by NASA, ArgoMoon was selected as the only European of 10 satellites to fly on board the Space Launch System (SLS), which was, at the time of launch, the most powerful rocket ever built. Of the 10 satellites launched, only four were able to establish communication with Earth after being released from the second stage of the SLS. ArgoMoon was among those that succeeded.
ArgoMoon’s objective was to validate the technology in orbit and take photos of the Moon and Earth from a privileged viewpoint.
ArgoMoon, along with LICIACube, ensured that Argotec was the only private company in the world to have two operational microsatellites simultaneously in Deep Space. With ArgoMoon, Argotec reaffirmed its excellence and reliability, demonstrating the technological potential of microsatellites.
