About this report
Celestia UK may not yet be a household name, but this Edinburgh-based engineering firm is quietly pioneering a new class of satellite ground stations. As part of a pan-European group of space technology companies, Celestia UK has developed a cutting-edge phased-array antenna gateway – a ground terminal that can electronically track multiple satellites at once, without the mechanical slewing of traditional dish antennas.
In recent demonstrations, the company proved the world’s first multi-beam Ka -band gateway, communicating simultaneously with satellites in low Earth orbit via agile, software-driven beam steering.
