2025-10-16 AAC Clyde Space AB (publ)
AAC Clyde Space's Sedna-1 satellite has successfully completed commissioning and is now delivering maritime intelligence data to customers.
Built and operated by the US subsidiary AAC SpaceQuest in Fairfax, Virginia, Sedna-1 enhances AAC Clyde Space's space-based maritime data infrastructure, increasing capacity, coverage and resilience across its growing data services portfolio. The satellite also supports the continued development of advanced space-based technologies that enable safer and more efficient operations at sea.
AAC Clyde Space is recognised as a leading global provider of satellite-based AIS data and a pioneer in the development of VDES, the next-generation standard for maritime communications. Building on more than two decades of experience, the company is strengthening its leading position in space-based maritime intelligence.
"With Sedna-1 now fully operational, we continue to strengthen the foundations of our data services," said AAC Clyde Space CEO Luis Gomes. "Each new satellite adds capacity and resilience to our maritime data network, allowing us to serve customers with greater precision and reliability. It's a tangible step forward in our ambition to lead the future of maritime intelligence."
The Sedna satellites form part of AAC Clyde Space's growing portfolio of space-based data services, which generate recurring revenue by delivering data and decision-ready information to customers across the maritime sector.
About AAC Clyde Space's satellite fleet (October 2025)
AAC Clyde Space's satellite fleet is growing in step with the increasing demand for space-based intelligence. In Q1 2026, the launch of VIREON-1 is planned - the first in a new four-satellite constellation for Earth Observation.
