Bright Ascension Ltd

We started Bright Ascension in 2011 to offer a fresh and innovative approach to engineering research and development in the space industry and other high technology areas. We have a unique mix of down-to-earth, hard-nosed, practical engineering experience and a rigorous approach sharpened through academic research. Our varied back-catalogue means that we are as comfortable with abstract theoretical concepts as we are with getting our hands dirty and producing effective products in difficult conditions. Knowing the theory allows us to take a step back and offer a clear perspective on your problems; being practical means that we never lose sight of the real-world constraints you are working with.

We have applied our experience and innovation to Generation 1, our industry-leading onboard software product for Nano-Satellites, including CubeSats. Rather than being a one-size-fits-all solution, or requiring significant accompanying consultancy, Generation 1 is a software toolkit, allowing you to quickly and easily assemble onboard software to meet the needs of your mission from a library of proven software components, utilising our mature software framework and development tools. We can provide an end-to-end solution with the addition of our Generation 1 Mission Control System, which complements our onboard software to provide a complete solution from early prototyping, through early integration, AIT and on-orbit operations.
