SpaceX opens the door to "sharing" its spacecraft tracking data with its "StarGaze" Space Situational Awareness (SSA) system.

Stargaze aggregates data from ~ 30,000 star trackers distributed across the StarLink satellite fleet to generate accurate orbit estimates and predictions of position and velocity for all detected objects in near real-time and the system generates Conjunction Data Messages (CDMs). 

SpaceX will make Stargaze conjunction data available to any satellite operator (free of charge) that submits its own ephemeris (trajectory) data to the platform. Stargaze ephemeris is updated and shared publicly every hour.

BIG question: How long will Stargaze be "free of charge" ??? https://news.satnews.com/2026/02/18/spacex-unveils-stargaze-system-to-revolutionize-space-traffic-management/

Exploring the world of the artist known as ECDSA!

In the latest TechAptitude post we dive into the primary cryptographic algorithm used in many blockchain based systems including Bitcoin and Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Avalanche - Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA).

We review ECDSA and how it secures cryptocurrencies like BitCoin and Ethereum.

It is a matter of time before Quantum Computing gains the ability to crack today’s core public key encryption methods.

Our latest post on TechAptitude outlines the efforts by NIST to generate new cryptography standards to help withstand future quantum powered cyber attacks. Check it out!

The latest TechAptitude post explores the highly complex and critical space of Quantum Memory. Quantum Memory performs the delicate balance of storing the quantum state of a photon or other entangled particle without destroying the quantum information of that particle.
