Have you heard about Starlink? This new internet WiFi system relies on our Guardians to make sure everything goes smoothly during the countdown to launch!
Talk about being the star of the show.
If our satellites stopped working, you wouldn't be able to pull money out of ATMs? Talk about a major bag alert.
So, while you’re cashing in those winnings from

bets, think of us.
Giant golf ball or snowball? Neither. It’s a radome. Its purpose? To provide a protective barrier to guard important satellite equipment in an emergency. 📡

, yesterday was the halfway point between the winter solstice and spring equinox (aka 6 weeks).
Can you believe we’re only two years old?
Now look at us, defending the country and freedom to operate in space. How many 2-year olds do you know who can do that? We grow up so fast. 🥺
This is us. One world. One human race.
In order for us to reach “new majestic heights” as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, we must remember that no matter our differences, we’re all in this together.

We don’t explore the space around us, we protect it. So while we may not have the cool photos, our mission is just as inspiring.

So next time you look to astrology for answers about why life feels chaotic, especially with communication and technology, remember us.

is gearing up for a satellite launch that leads the way in providing better weather imagery and contributing to giving our Nation the edge in more resilient space systems. The EWS Cubesat Tech Demo is scheduled to launch in early March. Stay tuned! 🚀
