Exotrail's spacetower™ is a solution designed by space mobility experts to optimize the operations of satellite constellations thanks to its powerful Flight Dynamics engine. Using a cloud native design, spacetower™ infinitely scales to meet the needs of large constellations, making it the perfect choice for Prométhée Earth Intelligence's ambitious mission goals.

With its future JAPETUS constellation, Prométhée Earth Intelligence, France's leading new space-based earth observation operator, will become the first European operator capable of delivering data and services combining near-real time and hyper-reactivity. The performance of JAPETUS in terms of observation frequency, automatic global coverage and hyper-responsiveness, combined with on-board Artificial Intelligence capabilities integrated with the ground-based data processing platform, will enable a whole range of innovative services designed, for example, for high-frequency surveillance of critical sites, ocean protection, the fight against deforestation, or real-time detection of abnormal activities in the fight against illegal fishing.

Prométhée's decision to rely on spacetower™ underscores the platform’s capabilities in managing complex satellite operations. The integration of spacetower™ will enable Prométhée Earth Intelligence to streamline its satellite operations, reduce operational costs, and improve mission responsiveness.

Sébastien Piro, Software Business Development and Sales Director of Exotrail, said:

“We are delighted to support Prométhée Earth Intelligence with our spacetower™ Flight Dynamics System solution.  Their commitment to innovative Earth observation services aligns perfectly with our mission to enable agile space missions. With spacetower™, Prométhée Earth Intelligence will be able to maximize the performance and efficiency of their Protométhée satellite, ensuring mission success.”

Frédéric Tromeur, Chief Digital Officer at Prométhée, said:

“Our collaboration on Flight Dynamics with their spacetower™, which we use in our ground segment, is an indispensable component in theoverall performance of the system. Our agile and efficient collaboration is a real win-win partnership”
