S'pore-made satellite to go into orbit next year
ST Electronics plans to launch its first commercial satellite in the fourth quarter of next year, it announced at the Global Space and Technology Convention yesterday while unveiling several partnerships with overseas satellite companies.
Called TeLEOS-1, the satellite will also be Singapore's first commercial earth observation satellite, and is "in the final stage of development", it said.
The company's satellite communications & sensor systems unit, STEE-SatComS, had signed a launch service agreement with India's state-owned Antrix Corporation to send TeLEOS-1 into a near equatorial orbit.
