Technological gains

The main technological gains resulting from the Amazonia 1 Mission are:

• The validation of the Multi Mission Platform (MMP) as a system, generating reliability and significant reductions in schedules and costs for the development of future satellite missions based on the Multi Mission Platform;
• Consolidation of the knowledge of Brazil in the complete cycle of development of stabilized satellites in 3 axes, also gaining maturity in the activities of integration and satellite tests;
• Consolidating knowledge in the Attitude Control and Orbit Control and On-Board Supervision subsystem, based on the experience of the contract with technology transfer from Argentina;
• Development in the national industry of the opening mechanisms of the Solar Panel, which in the satellites of the series CBERS were provided by China;
• Development of the propulsion of the attitude and orbit control subsystem in the national industry, although using parts acquired abroad;
• Country capacity to carry out initial post-launch operations (LEOP);
• Consolidation of knowledge in the launch campaign of more complex satellites;
• Consolidation and acquisition of experience in decision making and actions under critical operating conditions;
• Acquisition of experience in the execution of operations to close the mission life cycle.
