Technology

A controlled mission chain
from tasking to evidence.

Sirona connects payload, command, processing and signed evidence while identifying which elements are implemented, proposed or awaiting external validation.

Architecture

Mission architecture and authority.

Every interface has an owner, an acceptance condition and a record. The architecture is designed to preserve customer control without pretending that all flight hardware already exists.

Customer authority

Mission request

Identity, role, decision, limits and approval policy.

Mission operations

Mission planning and command

Tasking, scheduling, command approval and safe-state logic.

Space segment

Calibrated observation

Payload, time, calibration, attitude and platform state.

Evidence system

Orbit estimate and signed record

Processing, uncertainty, provenance, alert and replay.

Payload and platform

Mission-specific payload, built on proven spacecraft infrastructure.

Sirona intends to retain payload requirements, system architecture, timing, calibration, tasking, evidence and mission authority. Proven buses, conventional subsystems, launch and environmental services can be procured from qualified suppliers.

Current baseline
GEO custody payload and ground product on a dedicated partner spacecraft.
Proposed direction
A staged route to spacecraft and mission capacity Sirona owns or controls.
Evidence boundary
No selected bus, contracted payload, flight unit or operational satellite.

Verification environments

Different questions need different test environments.

Sirona intends to move from controlled setup and real-sky observation to representative hardware and environmental evidence. The scenes below describe future validation routes, not completed Sirona tests.

Representative spacecraft model in an anechoic chamber during powered-down test preparation
Controlled Sirona concept. Representative anechoic-chamber setup mode only; no active RF test, completed EMC campaign or Sirona facility is claimed.

RF preparation

Anechoic-chamber setup.

Personnel are present, so the scene represents alignment and instrumentation preparation with RF transmission off. It does not claim a completed EMC campaign or result.

Representative observatory timing rack and telescope control room during pre-session preparation
Controlled Sirona concept. Representative observatory timing and instrument-control preparation; no Sirona facility, provider access, live campaign, collected data or performance result is claimed.

Real-sky route

Observe before committing to flight.

A future provider observatory could support multi-night GEO observations, reference comparison and independent replay. No telescope access or measured result is claimed.

Technology foundation

Three working foundations.

Ground evidence, secure mission operations and flight software interfaces are implemented in the workspace. They remain pre-production, unqualified and not customer accepted.

Ground Alpha

Signed evidence pipeline

Tasking, synthetic observation, detection, tracklets, orbit estimate, uncertainty, alerts, evidence bundle and replay.

Implemented and internally tested
Mission systems

Secure mission operations

Command policy, cryptography, communications, audit, API, SDK, operations console and deployment assets.

Pre-production workspace
Flight workspace

Flight software interfaces

Scheduling, fault handling, secure-element interfaces, attestation and reconfiguration patterns on host and emulated targets.

Not flight qualified

Maturity

Current technology maturity.

Passing local tests matters. It does not replace customer acceptance, independent validation, target hardware or flight qualification.
