LOCATA AND URSANAV ANNOUNCE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERSHIP FOR RESILIENT PNT
Russia’s recent threat that it could blow up all the GPS satellites with its new anti-satellite technology (ASAT) should come as no shock to those following space-related events. In the past, China shot down one of its own Low Earth Orbit Satellites (LEOS) using a medium-range ballistic missile, and the United States used a modified antiballistic missile to shoot down one of its own spy satellites. Blowing up satellites, solar flares, ever increasing hazards from “space junk”, and thousands of new satellites in the launch queue all make space a congested and increasingly dangerous place.
Locata Corporation and Ursa Navigation Solutions, Inc. (“UrsaNav”) today announced a Technology Partnership specifically aimed at providing resilient PNT (Positioning, Navigation, and Timing) solutions to national governmental and commercial interests globally. Combining Locata’s high-accuracy local-area and UrsaNav’s very wide-area PNT produces a potent solution which lessens any nations’ dependency on easily disrupted and increasingly vulnerable space- based signals.
