Assets that match how real missions are engineered

Define mission assets once in a scenario, then reuse them everywhere—visualization, coverage, access, link budgets, power, conjunction and much more.

Spacecraft

Model satellites with analytical / high-fidelity numerical propagators . Add realistic 3D models and switch attitudes (Nadir, LVLH, Sun-pointing and more). Includes an integrated Orbit Wizard (SSO, GEO, GTO, LEO) for fast design iterations.

Spacecraft

Ground Facility

Create ground stations with user-defined masks and visibility constraints. Host child assets (sensors, transmitters, receivers) and evaluate access windows and link performance consistently across your entire scenario.

Ground Facility

Area Of Interest

Build interactive AOIs (countries, regions, custom polygons) powered by geospatial data. Use them to generate coverage grids and mission metrics, then visualize results as heatmaps directly on the globe.

Area Of Interest

Target

Define point targets that drive sensor pointing and mission geometry. Targets integrate directly with targeted pointing modes, access computations and reporting—ideal for EO tasking concepts and rapid what-if studies.

Target

Constellation

Generate Walker constellations from a seed spacecraft and compare designs quickly. Members inherit consistent orbit settings, enabling trade studies on global coverage, revisit, redundancy and performance.

Constellation

Sensor

Add conical or rectangular FOV sensors to spacecraft or facilities. Support body-fixed, scanning, conical spin and targeted pointing to other assets. Footprints can be tracked over time for swath accumulated coverage.

Sensor

Power Subsystems

Add solar arrays (including single-axis SADM-style rotation) and batteries with key parameters. Visualize Sun and panel-normal vectors in the 3D viewer and run preliminary power budgets driven by eclipse and duty-cycle loads.

Power Subsystems

Communications

Equip assets with simple RF models for preliminary link budgets. Configure frequency, data rate, EIRP modes, Eb/N0 requirements, G/T, losses and modulation basics. Designed for stable early-phase comms sizing.

Communications

Tools that turn mission concepts into engineering reality

From concept to execution, ASTROLAB gives engineers the tools to analyze, optimize and deliver.
Built for flexibility. Ready for complexity.

Features Overview

Interactive 3D Visualization

Explore complex orbital dynamics in a fully interactive 3D Earth environment. Visualize spacecraft, ground stations, sensor footprints and visibility windows — all in real time, with engineering precision.
ASTROLAB’s globe is more than a viewer — it’s a mission control surface where analysis and visualization converge.

Core analysis modules

Orbit Design

Design orbits that fit your mission

Explore and design satellite orbits across LEO, MEO, GEO and highly-elliptical regimes using an intuitive Orbit Wizard or direct parameter control. Rapidly assess GTO, GEO, Molniya, SSO and custom orbits, and understand how orbital choices impact coverage, access and system performance from the very first trade studies.
