FutureNAV
The FutureNAV programme seeks to lead the way in responding to new satnav trends and concepts in an effective, agile way, applying hard-won European expertise in satellite navigation and broader Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) technology. It will be composed of several missions to adequately respond to the rapidly growing needs for more ubiquitous, resilient, and reliable positioning, navigation and timing (PNT).
Initially, FutureNAV will support its first two missions. The first consists of an initial in-orbit demonstration, small constellation of Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) navigation satellites, orbiting a few hundred kilometers up in space.
