Small Satellite Conference, Salt Lake City, UT August 23–26, 2026
We are attending the 40th Annual Small Satellite Conference – whose aim is to celebrate the past, examine the present, and shape the future of small satellites - at the Italian Trade Agency Pavillion - Booth no.2313.
“The Clouds Above the Clouds” is the theme of this year’s Conference. It refers to the current new era of enhanced launch opportunities, optimized ground infrastructure, edge processing, and high-speed space networking. Crucial missions in navigation, communications, Earth and space observation, and other fields that are powered by these "clouds above the clouds”: today’s satellite constellations -systems of systems composed of hundreds or even thousands of satellites – that collect, process, and deliver unprecedented amounts of data with latencies measured in milliseconds.
Since the first Thermal Vacuum Chamber in 1988, our company has supplied to the major international Research Centers, Institutes and Private Companies a wide range of TVC – ACS branded - suitable for every need: tests on satellites and their components, on spacecraft electric thrusters; calibration of optical instruments for Earth observation, and much more.
The latest 'born' is Qbe TVC, offering a range of testing capabilities specific for CubeSats and microsatellites.
