Aquarious Workman, CISM, Head of Cybersecurity for Planetary Systems AI, demonstrates the company’s AI service for U.S. Space Force

Colorado Springs, CO. – The Planetary Systems AI team capped three months of intensive multidisciplinary work this week with a demonstration of the company’s capabilities in AI-driven data management for space domain awareness (SDA) at the U.S. Space Force’s SDA TAP Lab

By aggregating more than 2.3 million open-source records on satellites owned by U.S. and foreign entities, the team was able to build out a body of knowledge that will help the Space Force spot and defend military, government, and commercial spacecraft against hostile actions by other countries in space.

Aquarious Workman, PSAI’s Head of Cybersecurity, presented the demo to an audience of investors and U.S. Department of Defense officials, surrounded by nearly 60 companies, many of whom the company had collaborated with closely during Demo Day for Cohort 4 of the Lab’s Apollo Accelerator program.

The company will be continuing its work at the SDA TAP Lab into Cohort 5, which kicks off Nov. 5 and runs until late January. 



We’re sharing proud kudos to Aquarious Workman, CISM, our Head of Cybersecurity, who is busy preparing Planetary Systems AI for compliance with the DoD’s CMMC 2.0 standards and industry best practices:

Via Satellite today named Aquarious to their Rising Stars of 2024 , a cohort of young professionals making their mark in the space industry.

 “We are proud of Aquarious and his tremendous contributions already to the U.S. Department of Defense as well as the space and defense industries with his service to this nation. He is a leader in the field of cybersecurity and dual-use technologies,” said CEO & Chief Space Officer Cindy Chin, FRSA. “This award exemplifies those contributions and his portfolio of work with prime contractors and here with us at PSAI leading our cyber-first efforts.”

New York, NY, July 30, 2024 – Planetary Systems AI (PSAI), a planetary support company providing cyber-first artificial intelligence and machine-learning solutions for space and satellite operations, announced today that it has been selected to participate in the U.S. Space Systems Command’s Space Domain Awareness (SDA) Tools Applications and Processing (TAP) Lab Apollo Accelerator Cohort 4. This program enables PSAI to demonstrate its machine learning models and AI product solutions for decision support in satellite operations and space domain awareness. 

“With the amount of orbital traffic and payloads being deployed into space in the expansion of the space economy, it is imperative that a continuous monitoring and coverage of space assets traffic and anomaly management occurs 24/7/365.” said CEO & Chief Space Officer Cindy Chin. “PSAI is leveraging our AI and machine learning roots and capabilities to work with our government and commercial customers and partners to ensure that their decision support is accelerated and enhanced through our AI solutions, even through multi-classification systems. Our team is excited to showcase these tools and capabilities during the SDA TAP Lab with U.S. Space Systems Command, U.S. Space Force and other government and industry partners.” 

During the three-month TAP Lab cycle, PSAI will further test and refine its solutions for SDA by responding with a team in a given scenario related to threat warning and assessment. This includes the company’s solutions for ontology SDK, multi-classification architecture, data normalization and processing of semi-structured, unstructured, and synthetic test data, as well as its management dashboards.

About SDA TAP Lab (https://sdataplab.org/): The Space Domain Awareness TAP Lab accelerates the delivery of space battle management software to operational units. We decompose kill chains, prioritize needs with operators, map needs to technologies, and onboard tech to existing platforms quickly.
