Briefing
Simera Sense’s optical payload will fly on Infinite Orbits’ Orbit Guard mission, advancing France’s space‑based space situational awareness (SSA) sensor deployment under the CNES‑led France 2030 programme.
The deal complements France’s recent national investments in sovereign space surveillance — including a €50 million framework award to Infinite Orbits for geostationary surveillance — signalling sustained government funding for operational SSA capabilities.
