Time for a paradigm shift

Discover the next generation of CubeSats

01

INEXPENSIVE

  • lower cosmic rays allow the use of commercial off-the-shelf components
  • since nothing else is in VLEO, complex evasive maneuvers and space debris monitoring are unnecessary

02

FAST

  • flying in a lower orbit allows Captis a faster revisit time
  • lower latency due to a lower orbit
  • inter-satellite communication allows the transmission of data even from satellites out of a groundstation’s range 

03

CLEAN

  • there is no danger of space debris
  • after its lifetime, Captis satellites will disintegrate in the earth’s atmosphere

04

VERSATILE

  • the system is based on the CubeSat standard, which enables versatile applications
  • the system can be customized in size according to the customer’s imagination

OUR VISION

The use of VLEO is the next big step in commercial spaceflight. It will make operating satellites cheaper and safer. It will give more people access to space and let them benefit from the VLEO’s proximity to Earth.

Earth Observation
See how the use of VLEO cubesats benefits earth observation
Debris Monitoring
The satellite’s orientation is variable, so that it is also possible to film upwards, in higher orbits.
Gas Measuring
Various gases can be measured from space.
Customer's Payload
Captis aims to provide the user with a suitable satellite bus. The 1U payload can be chosen arbitrarily.
