Catalyst Campus in Colorado Springs recently welcomed three new partners – InTrack Radar Technologies, ATLAS Space Operations, and Keta Group. These additions are expected to boost the aerospace and defense industry and foster technology acceleration. The campus aims to facilitate collaboration and public-private partnerships among various companies to fuel economic growth and competitiveness.
ATLAS Space Operations was founded in 2015 with a vision to revolutionize satellite communications. By integrating their own and third-party antennas into their software, ATLAS has created a feature-rich Ground Software as a Service (GSaaS) offering and joined forces with AWS Ground Station to expand their ground network, providing clients with greater access and simplified integration.
ATLAS Space Operations has partnered with Viasat RTE, expanding its global ground network of 44 sites. This partnership provides ATLAS clients with immediate access to 10 new antennas, with more to come. The software, Freedom™, enables seamless management and data flow across diverse networks, showcasing the power of software in enhancing hardware capabilities.

Atlas Space Operations’ “Freedom” Ground-Software-as-a-Service (GSaaS) has been nominated for the 2022 Satellite Technology of the Year by Via Satellite. The platform automates communications processes, pre-plans satellite passes, and eliminates the need for satellite owners to act as ground station operators. It has received recognition and a major government endorsement, contributing to the rapid adoption of GSaaS.
