ALL SYSTEMS HEALTHY IN ORBIT

Apex, the world’s first mass-manufacturer of productized satellite bus platforms, is breaking new ground in national defense with Project Shadow—a mission to demonstrate key space-based interceptor technologies. The mission is slated to fire demonstration-class space-based interceptors on orbit within the next year. Project Shadow marks a critical step toward advancing U.S. space defense capabilities and maturing key technologies needed to deploy a proliferated, space-based interceptor (SBI) constellation.
