Millennium Engineering and Integration Scheduled to Deliver ORS-7 Spacecraft

Millennium Engineering and Integration Company Scheduled to Deliver ORS-7 Spacecraft in Support of DHS and NOAA

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (PRWEB) April 19, 2018

Millennium Engineering and Integration Company (Millennium) will complete development, integration, and launch processing of two Cubesat satellites, including flight software and ground support systems for Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Polar Scout and Air Force ORS-7 mission.

ORS-7/Polar Scout is a set of two satellites with a payload that can sense emergency beacons from boats, airplanes and other distress emitters. Polar Scout plans to demonstrate its ability to compliment or gap-fill those satellites monitoring the Arctic and other remote areas. Millennium brokered the launch via SpaceFlight Industries of Seattle, WA on a Falcon 9 Rideshare to be launched out of Vandenberg AFB early fall placing both units in a sun-synchronous orbit. Partnering with the USAF Space Command Rapid Capabilities Office (SpRCO), Rincon Research Corporation, Utah State’s Space Dynamics Laboratory, and Raytheon Missile Systems in Tucson, AZ, Millennium led the development and demonstrated a prototype rapid production line capable of scaling to larger quantities and larger satellites. These two units are the first operational satellites from this collaboration.
