About the team
The Constellation Management & Space Safety team maintains and builds the software services responsible for maintaining situational awareness of Kuiper satellites through their entire lifecycle in space. We coordinate with internal and external organizations to maintain the nominal operational state of the constellation. We build automated systems that use satellite telemetry and other relevant data to predict future orbits, plan maneuvers to avoid high risk close approaches with other objects in space, keep satellites in the desired locations, and exchange data with external organizations. We provide visibility information that is used to predict and establish communication channels for Kuiper satellites.
