“…In 25 years SSTL has built a profitable business around a unique approach to space (Morring 2001). Liddle et al (2004) gave a description of the development at SSTL in the UK of a satellite platform for use in a Geostationary Earth Orbit. Commercial Space Technologies, Ltd (CST) (http://www.commercialspace.co.uk/) has undertaken several studies of the methods available for the launch of GEMINI-1, a 400 kg test satellite being built by SSTL in collaboration with Nigeria, for the British National Space Centre (BNSC), who have included it in their MOSAIC UK small-satellite programme.…”
