In September, Millennium Space Systems played a key role in a U.S. Space Force mission to demonstrate the ability to deliver a spacecraft and launch it on rapid timelines as part of the Victus Nox mission.
Kim, the CEO of Millennium Space Systems, stated that the knowledge and success from the Victus Nox mission will be leveraged to other areas including the Space Force’s Missile Track Custody program.
For Victus Nox, Millennium took advantage of its active Altair satellite bus production line to deliver a spacecraft in a matter of months, instead of the usual years. The satellite was integrated with a Firefly Aerospace rocket at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California 60 hours before liftoff and completed its checkout and was ready for operations in 37 hours.
Millennium completed its critical design review for the Missile Track Custody program which aims to develop a constellation of satellites in medium Earth orbit and the Space Force plans to spend $3.5 billion through fiscal 2028 to build out the constellation.
Millennium is on contract to deliver six satellites as part of the first epoch and is also preparing for the second epoch by establishing a production line dedicated to Missile Track Custody.
