Simulating Space: Designing Satellites for Mission Success

Simulating Space: Designing Satellites for Mission Success

During his appearance at a Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS) event held in March, Major General Gregory Gagnon, a top U.S. Space Force official, said that the U.S. Space Force expects to launch more than 100 satellites in 2025.

Have you ever considered the challenges of operating inspace that companies must address when designing satellites for military and non-military applications? In the latest issue of Ansys Advantage, simulation software provider Ansys outlined these considerations in their article "The State of Satellites: Applications, Challenges and Opportunities."

According to Patrick North, Principal R&D Engineer, Ansys, said that "power, space, and weight" are the primary factors that systems engineers must consider when designing new satellites.

North is the guest on this episode of the Aerospace & Defense Technology podcast to explain how major aerospace and defense companies use their advanced simulation softwareand tools to design and model defense satellites for a wide variety of applications.
