Ready for launch earth observation spacecraft
EPIC VIEW spacecraft are supplied to our customers as a fully integrated platform with optical payloads in-built, ready to go!
Designed for Earth Observation applications, our compact flight ready 6U CubeSats are highly integrated and utilize in-built precision engineered avionics with decades of heritage from our widely used CubeSat subsystems.
The EPIC View can generate space data for a wide array of applications right here on earth, from weather forecasting, tracking, and monitoring biodiversity and wildlife trends, smart urban planning, smart agriculture to the analysis of key climate change variables.
These ready for launch 6U spacecraft are tailored to your earth observation mission. Our high-performance attitude determination and control system and high data-rate design features are never compromised when rapidly manufactured. It’s performance leading spacecraft with a quick delivery.
The EPIC VIEW has increased performance, versatility, and unrivalled operational up-time, offering unparalleled reliability for your mission. Each spacecraft is supported by EPIC -SAFE, AAC Clyde Space’s propriety hardware and software solution offering ‘always on’ operation and robust recovery mechanisms, as well as AES256 encryption authentication security.
Leveraging AAC Clyde Space’s 100% success rate in delivering CubeSat missions, the EPIC VIEW standard delivers industry-leading performance. Designed for rapid repeatable builds, this eagle eye from space solution makes constellations of satellites more achievable for missions requiring global coverage.
