- Description
- The U.S. Government, specifically the Department of Defense and Department of Commerce, continue to make significant investments in addressing the space domain awareness mission. The goal of the Space-WATCH program is to provide real-time persistent tracking of all objects in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) so that when an anomalous action occurs, operators can be notified in a timely fashion, allowing them to plan and execute appropriate actions. To accomplish this, Space-WATCH aims to capitalize on the enormous volume of low-cost in-situ sensors in LEO on commercial satellites that can contribute to continuous detection and tracking of nearby objects, identify when an anomaly or unexpected event/movement occurs, and then provide relevant details in a timely fashion to ground-based operators who can then direct appropriate action. Critical to this process will be the establishment of an �as-a-service� model to incentivize data collection from non-government owned sensors that can be processed to form a single operational picture of LEO. This will provide the opportunity for commercial LEO operators to capitalize on an additional revenue stream by providing on-orbit observations that will contribute to a safer LEO environment for all participants. DARPA will host an Industry Day in support of DARPA-PS-23-01, the Space-WATCH program on Wednesday, January 18, 2023, at the Strategic Analysis, Inc. Conference Space on 4075 Wilson Blvd, Suite 300, Arlington, VA, 22203 or via Zoom.gov from 1:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. ET. The purpose of this session is to promote additional discussion on this topic; address questions from potential proposers; and provide additional instructions on how potential proposers can present their capabilities for teaming opportunities. For more information, please see the attached Special Notice.
