N / 01Network

One layer.Everything on it.

Communication, navigation, observation and logistics spacecraft operate as a single network. Filter the constellation and drag to rotate.

Simulated constellation — 44 of 44 objects shown. Not live data.

Optical crosslinks between relay spacecraft, radio to the surface. The network routes a message around an occultation without the sender knowing it happened. Latency to Mars is physics; everything else is engineering.

Optical link rate: 12 Gbps
Relay spacecraft: 9 active
Positioning accuracy: 0.9 m, cislunar
Earth–Mars availability: 98.7%
