Inspection

Advanced In-Orbit Inspection

Inspection helps operators understand what is happening on orbit before deciding what to do next.

Asset awareness

Understand the asset before choosing the action.

Inspection does not require a satellite to be built for servicing. It is a broadly useful capability for operators who need better information about spacecraft condition, configuration, or visible anomalies.

Antandros is developing inspection capabilities that support customer engineering review and future servicing decisions without requiring immediate physical interaction.

Candidate applications

Inspection and assessment support for satellite operators.

External condition assessment

Review visible spacecraft condition, configuration, or surface changes.

Solar-array inspection

Assess deployment state, apparent damage, alignment concerns, degradation, or contamination.

Visible anomaly review

Capture external views that may support operator-led assessment after an anomaly or unexpected behavior.

MMOD assessment support

Collect imagery and contextual data that may help operators review micrometeoroid or orbital-debris events.

Surface degradation review

Inspect visible discoloration, erosion, contamination, or external change over mission life.

Pre-servicing survey

Support future servicing decisions by characterizing visible external conditions before any physical servicing attempt.

Responsible limits

Assessment support, not unsupported diagnosis.

Inspection data can help operators and engineering teams make better decisions, but confidence depends on geometry, lighting, sensor suite, customer data, and mission-specific analysis.

Antandros frames inspection outputs as assessment-support data, not as guaranteed anomaly diagnosis.
