Description
The Northstrat Point Break proposal falls within the Artificial Intelligence/ Machine Learning” AF211-CSO1 Focus Area, specifically addressing the S&T strategic capability of Rapid, Effective Decision-Making. The Air Force Satellite Control Network (AFSCN) is a critical resource used by America’s military, national authorities, and allied partners to perform Telemetry, Tracking and Commanding (TT&C) and launch support on critical US satellites. The AFSCN was activated in 1959 and consists of 7 locations dispersed around the globe. The US Space Force (USSF) relies on ageing AFSCN mechanical antennas that often suffer catastrophic failures leading to weeks of limited capability or complete mission outages.
