Austral Aurora is a pioneering project in Chile dedicated to providing expert advisory services specialized in the management of risks associated with space weather. We provide continuous space weather monitoring and forecasting services focused on protecting satellites from solar and geomagnetic activity. The information we generate is highly relevant for all stages of a space mission, from long-term orbit planning, real-time mission development, and finally the deorbiting process necessary to comply with international standards. To achieve this, we provide forecasts and alerts on multiple time scales that allow maximizing the lifespan of space platforms and minimizing the risk associated with space weather.
Our Services include:
- Real-time monitoring and forecasting of electromagnetic and corpuscular radiation
- Monitoring and forecasting of geomagnetic activity (Dst/SYM-H indices)
- Atmospheric density forecasting at orbital levels (highly relevant in low orbits during periods of solar activity)
- Astrodynamic analysis: customized orbital propagation calculation
- Statistical models for risk mitigation planning
