There’s a lot to talk about from 2024 — from SES’s acquisition of Intelsat, Starlink’s commercial wins, challenges with some of the biggest manufacturers, and new launch vehicles coming online. The discussion centers around the top storylines from operators, manufacturers, and launchers, and why these are the critical stories that we’ll be covering as they continue to develop in 2025.

This episode of the On Orbit Future Space Economy series explores what deep space satellite networks will look like, and how they will be built to perform in extraordinary environments. We’ll also discuss the history of deep-space exploration and research satellites and what we’ve learned from those missions.</p> <hr /> <p role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level"><strong><a href="https://www.satellitetoday.com/podcast/2024/04/22/how-trustpoint-aims-at-the-commercial-future-of-gps-with-ceo-patrick-shannon/">Episode 120</a></strong> | April 22, 2024</p> <h4 role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level"><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-385295" src="https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-150x150.jpeg" alt="" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-150x150.jpeg 150w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-300x300.jpeg 300w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-800x800.jpeg 800w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-200x200.jpeg 200w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-667x667.jpeg 667w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-640x640.jpeg 640w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></h4> <h4>How TrustPoint Aims at the Commercial Future of GPS, with CEO Patrick Shannon</h4> <p>In this week’s On Orbit episode, we’re joined by Patrick Shannon, CEO of <strong>TrustPoint</strong>.

TrustPoint is building a commercial GPS system, and working toward its own constellation of around 300 spacecraft in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) to offer GPS services that have more affordable precision, better security, and greater availability. Shannon breaks down some of the the limitations of traditional GPS and why we are now seeing more commercial businesses like TrustPoint looking to provide new solutions to GPS issues.</p> <hr /> <p role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level"><a href="https://www.satellitetoday.com/podcast/2024/04/01/to-leo-geo-and-beyond-a-conversation-with-tom-mueller/"><strong>Episode 119</strong></a> | April 1, 2024</p> <h4 role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level"><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-385295" src="https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-150x150.jpeg" alt="" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-150x150.jpeg 150w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-300x300.jpeg 300w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-800x800.jpeg 800w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-200x200.jpeg 200w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-667x667.jpeg 667w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-640x640.jpeg 640w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></h4> <h4 role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level">To LEO, GEO, and Beyond: A Conversation With Tom Mueller</h4> <p>We have a special On Orbit episode from SATELLITE 2024 this week, a fireside chat with <strong>Impulse Space</strong> CEO Tom Mueller.

This raised a lot of questions — What would a nuclear weapon mean in space? Why would Russia pursue this? In this week’s On Orbit episode, we dig into these questions with Dr. Brian Weeden, chief program officer of the Secure World Foundation. He explains the physical and geopolitical consequences of detonating a nuclear weapon in space, implications for the Outer Space Treaty, and how this situation has raised awareness of security issues in space.</p> <hr /> <p role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level"><a href="https://www.satellitetoday.com/podcast/2024/02/16/unpacking-the-geopolitical-landscape-of-gnss-with-zephr-ceo-sean-gorman/"><strong>Episode 117</strong></a> | February 16, 2024</p> <h4 role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level"><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-385295" src="https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-150x150.jpeg" alt="" width="150" height="150" srcset="https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-150x150.jpeg 150w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-300x300.jpeg 300w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-800x800.jpeg 800w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-200x200.jpeg 200w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-667x667.jpeg 667w, https://www.satellitetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/44163_Via_On-Orbit_logo_stacked_KO_Yellow_10x10_hr-640x640.jpeg 640w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></h4> <h4 role="heading" aria-level="2" data-uw-rm-heading="level">Unpacking the Geopolitical Landscape of GNSS With Zephr CEO Sean Gorman</h4> <p>We often take for granted how much of our modern lives are underpinned by GPS technology.
