Civil Space
Civil space missions are launched by public sector agencies and aim to push the boundaries of human understanding. Typical civil space applications include scientific observation, space exploration, navigation, search and rescue, weather forecasting and environmental monitoring.
Civil space missions tend to be unique, and involve years of preparation and engineering development culminating in a space instrument or a satellite which will deliver important data for years to come. COM DEV is able to solve the complex challenges inherent in such missions by applying the custom engineering expertise we have developed over three decades in the space industry. Typical end users in this market are the national space agencies such as NASA, the Canadian Space Agency and the European Space Agency.
Our technological capabilities, particularly sensors, electronics and instruments, are not only applicable to the civil market, but also have commercial and military uses.
