Joshua Anto: Breaking the wall of orbital limits

Most satellites operate as isolated systems, limited by onboard power and storage during each orbit. I aim to break this wall by creating a shared orbital utility platform that provides supplemental power and data relay services, allowing satellites to capture more data, operate longer, reduce costs, and improve mission productivity without launching additional spacecraft.
