CSIRO and the Office of the NSW Chief Scientist & Engineer have launched a new startup that hopes to enable satellite ground stations to communicate with hundreds of space satellites at once.
On Tuesday CSIRO announced that startup Quasar Satellite Technologies would build space communications technology using an Australian-based team, with expertise and research support from CSIRO.
“CSIRO’s technology breakthrough enabled the world to connect without wires using fast WiFi, and now our technology will help connect satellites using our breakthrough phased array technology,” chief executive Dr Larry Marshall said in a statement.
