AAC Clyde Space's Sedna-2 satellite now fully operational

AAC Clyde Space's Sedna-2 satellite has successfully completed commissioning and is now delivering maritime intelligence data to customers, joining Sedna-1 in service. Together, the two satellites strengthen AAC Clyde Space's space-based AIS data network, expanding its capacity and resilience.

With both Sedna satellites now in service, AAC Clyde Space continues to expand and strengthen its maritime data infrastructure. Built and operated by the Group's US subsidiary AAC SpaceQuest, the satellites enhance the company's capacity, coverage and reliability, supporting the delivery of accurate and timely space-based intelligence.

"As our maritime constellation expands, we are increasing both the capacity and the reliability of the data we deliver," says Luis Gomes, CEO of AAC Clyde Space. "This steady growth reflects our long-term strategy to build a sustainable business around high-value, recurring data services that make operations around the world safer and more efficient."

AAC Clyde Space combines proven AIS data services with the development of VDES, the next-generation standard for maritime communications. The company has demonstrated two-way VDES communication from space and continues to develop the technology together with partners and customers.

The Sedna satellites form part of AAC Clyde Space's expanding Data and Services portfolio, which delivers high-quality, decision-ready information from space to customers across the world, while generating recurring revenues that drive the Group's continued growth.
