Melagen Labs x Satlyt: Our Joint ISS Mission to Validate Radiation-Resilient In-Orbit Computing

Описание: Melagen Labs and Satlyt are going to the International Space Station — together. 🚀

Today we're announcing a joint technology demonstration aboard the ISS through the AEGIS MISSE platform.

Our mission combines Melagen's advanced radiation shielding materials with Satlyt's onboard software platform, creating a fully integrated system designed to operate reliably in low Earth orbit.

The core objective: demonstrate that a COTS AI processor, protected by MLC1, can operate reliably in orbit — a critical validation step for next-generation space systems that require resilient materials and onboard data processing under real radiation exposure.

Muhammad Hunain (Co-Founder & CEO, Melagen Labs) and Rama Afullo (Founder & CEO, Satlyt) break down the mission, their journeys, and what's next for in-orbit computing.
