The Institute for Gravitational Research of the University of Glasgow, United Kingdom, is a research center dedicated to the subject of gravitational waves.

The institute is part of the School of Physics and Astronomy. The work of this institute is concentrated on the development of detectors to search for gravitational waves from astrophysical sources. The main areas of research are precision novel interferometric techniques and the development of systems of ultra low mechanical loss for the suspensions of mirror test masses.

The group is also involved in the space-based LISA mission as well as data analysis activities within the LIGO Scientific Collaboration.

Delfi-C3 is a CubeSat satellite constructed by students at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands.

Delfi-C3 is the first nanosatellite student project from the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. The satellite is based on the CubeSat concept and a number of novel technologies will be tested on board the satellite. 

It is a 3-unit CubeSat, and was launched on 28 April 2008, as part of the NLS-4 mission, aboard a PSLV rocket, from the Second Launch Pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in India. 

The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST), formerly called the Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST), is a space observatory being used to perform gamma-ray astronomy observations from low Earth orbit.

Its main instrument is the Large Area Telescope (LAT), with which astronomers mostly intend to perform an all-sky survey studying astrophysical and cosmological phenomena such as active galactic nuclei, pulsars, other high-energy sources and dark matter. Another instrument aboard Fermi, the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM; formerly GLAST Burst Monitor), is being used to study gamma-ray bursts.

Fermi was launched on 11 June 2008 aboard a Delta II 7920-H rocket. The mission is a joint venture of NASA, the United States Department of Energy, and government agencies in France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Sweden.

SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation is a Japanese direct broadcast satellite television company that operates the SKY PerfecTV! satellite network (including the JCSat satellites, the SuperBird satellites, the Horizons satellites).

SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation is the result of the merger of JSAT Corporation, SKY Perfect Communications, Inc., and Space Communications Corporation in October 2008. It is the core operating company of the SKY Perfect JSAT Group.

SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation is built on the strengths available from a hybrid business, operating both a stable space & satellite business and a proven, high-growth multi-channel pay TV business under one roof, while at the same time building services and  capacity to compete in the satellite communications market.

JSAT Corporation (JSAT) is satellite operator (Japan).

JSAT Corp. has a fleet of communications satellites in orbit. According to a 2004 report, JSAT was the fifth largest satellite operator in the world. JSAT was the first private-sector satellite communications operator in Japan (JCSat satellites). In October 2008 JSAT, was merged with SKY Perfect Communications, Inc., and Space Communications Corporation, resulting in the creation of the SKY Perfect JSAT Group.

The JCSat satellites are telecommunications satellites operated by the company 'SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation' (Japan).

The Angara rocket family is a family of space-launch vehicles being developed by the Moscow-based Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center.

(May 2013:) The rockets, which are to provide lifting capabilities between 2,000 and 40,500 kg into low earth orbit, are intended to become the mainstay of the Russian unmanned launcher fleet in the future and replace several existing systems.
