As the commercial space industry hurtles towards new frontiers, guaranteeing the operational resilience and unwavering safety of launch activities becomes paramount. One fundamental variable in the equation? Weather. Meteorological uncertainties, ranging from the abrupt violence of thunderstorms to the sudden surge of current from a nearby lightning strike, may pose a significant threat to meticulously planned launch operations.

That’s where the expertise of trusted lightning scientists at Scientific Lightning Solutions (SLS) comes in. As a leading provider of advanced weather monitoring, lightning risk assessments and lightning protection systems, SLS is proud to announce its participation at SpaceCom’s 50th Space Congress, one of the premier events for the commercial space industry.

Join us on January 31st, 2024, at 11:00 AM ET in room W340A for the session “Commercial Launch Weather Solutions,“ where SLS’ Chief Technology Officer, Carlos Mata, will take the stage alongside industry experts to delve into the critical role of weather in launch operations.

Attend “Commercial Launch Weather Solutions:” What’s On The Agenda?

• Space launch-specific weather detection and monitoring: Learn about the unique challenges of monitoring weather conditions at launch pads and the solutions for designing effective weather monitoring systems tailored to launch pad requirements.
• The Launch Weather Decision Support System (LWDSS): Discover how LWDSS empowers launch operators with real-time weather data, forecasts, and decision-making tools, minimizing weather-related delays and maximizing launch windows.
• Shifting from government-provided services to commercial solutions for launch-day needs: Explore the growing trend of commercial weather solutions for spaceports and launch facilities and gain insights into the advantages of these agile and cost-effective options.
• Case studies and best practices: The experts will share real-world examples of how weather monitoring and protection solutions have helped ensure the success of launch operations.

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights into the critical role of weather in space launch operations and, specifically how SLS’ innovative solutions can help you navigate lightning challenges with confidence.
