Launch of CERES satellites: A new generation CNES mission center using a product line developed by Atos

Paris, France – November seventeen, 2021

Atos currently declared that it has effectively supported the French authorities house company, CNES, in the mission handle of the CERES army constellation of 3 satellites which took position on Tuesday November 16 from Kourou in French Guiana (South The usa). CERES is a DGA (Course générale de l’armement) pushed method. Much more specially, Atos led a consortium of partners and made and produced the “ISIS” Product or service Line (CNES Initiative for House Ground breaking Standards), amanufacturer-new generation of mission handle units operated at CNES. This start is the initially time that these essential options have at any time been employed. Going ahead they could be employed by CNES for its future satellites.

For each and every house method, the orbiting and steering of the satellite is operated from the ground, in a devoted “mission handle center”. ISIS solutions the will need for a standardized mission handle process which functions for equally onboard satellite and ground segments and enhances over-all functions performance.

Made after years of joint get the job done, the ISIS item line allows CNES to improve mission operational fees and direct situations by deploying generic solutionsthat can bespeedily adapted to specific mission constraints (no matter if army, scientific, or linked to constellations). Operators can promptly deploy mission handle units applying a foundation of tested building blocks and tested infrastructure. The option produced by Atos incorporates point out-of-the-artwork automation and effective visualization capabilities to simplify tasks and aid satellite functions.

“It is with great delight that we have produced these new generation units, devoted to the handle of satellite missions, which are now a strategic pillar of CNES house programs. The ISIS item line capabilities a contemporary, modular and open up microservices architecture primarily based on a significant-efficiency framework. This process can be operated all through the satellite life cycle, from AIT (Assembly, Integration and Exam) to in-flight functions, with optimized fees compared to prior generations: it is a option for the future, and we want to see it flourish!” said Yannick Tricaud, Head of Southern Europe, Atos.
