Electro Optic Systems (EOS) has debuted its new Atlas Space Control capability at the 76th International Astronautical Congress (IAC) 2025 in Sydney.
The Atlas family of ground-based high energy laser space control systems is designed to counter growing threats to satellites in an increasingly contested and congested domain. Scalable to mission needs, Atlas is offered in fixed, mobile and relocatable configurations that can be deployed globally to ensure freedom of action in orbit.
With world-leading telescope and dome designs tailored to detect, track and characterise on-orbit objects in real time, Atlas provides deep space domain awareness both day and night, including for dim and hard-to-find objects.
The system delivers scalable power levels that allow operators to adjust effects for different mission needs, from deterrence through to active engagement. Atlas also integrates with space domain awareness and multi-domain joint operations to strengthen intelligence and decision making.
“Space is now a contested domain, and the satellites that enable both defence and civilian life are increasingly at risk. Atlas has been designed to safeguard these assets by giving operators scalable, deployable options for deterrence and space control,” said Dr Andreas Schwer, CEO of EOS. “Atlas builds on EOS’ four decades of experience in space domain awareness and laser technology. It is a capability that combines proven expertise with operational flexibility, ensuring that allied forces have reliable options to maintain freedom of action in orbit.”
Atlas was unveiled earlier today on the EOS Space Systems stand (457) at IAC 2025 and will remain on display for the duration of the event.
