A new approach to speed, scale and efficiency for the industrial base
Radars, EW, EO/IR, space imagery, and microelectronics are brought under one roof for a streamlined approach to common people and factories.
Detecting interference with Global Positioning System sat signals in conflict zones actually is “low hanging fruit,” says Spire’s Conor Brown. “We’re picking them up accidentally with our weather satellites.”

“The risks are real but are not quite as bad as some have claimed in some of the hypothetical ‘day without space’ scenarios,” says Secure World Foundation’s Brian Weeden.
By Theresa Hitchens WASHINGTON: No currently available commercial alternative can provide a stand-alone backup to GPS, concludes a long-awaited study led by the Transportation Department. While some systems can stand in for GPS’s timing function, none provide robust enough positioning and navigation capabilities, the study concludes. The study, Complementary PNT and GPS Backup Technologies Demonstration Report, was released Friday…
