Antaris

Antaris announced a new contract with the Space Development Agency to expand digital FlatSat development for SDA space vehicles using TrueTwin technology. Building on an initial 2024 SDA contract, the expanded program supports Antaris' Full Mission Virtualization push — enabling operators to test satellite software in a virtual environment before deployment, eliminating the need for costly physical hardware FlatSats.

JANUS-1, designed and tested entirely using the Antaris Cloud Platform, launched aboard ISRO's SSLV-D2 rocket on February 10, 2023 — becoming the world's first satellite designed, simulated, and operated from a cloud platform. The mission validated Antaris' TrueTwin digital twin approach, with pre-launch virtual testing predicting on-orbit behavior accurately.
