OneOrbit Client is installed on the same computer as the Orbit Server.

All the Orbit users within the local network can start the Orbit Client via a shortcut that is using a network share to the Orbit Client directory.


Data, users and all workspaces will be centrally managed but the Orbit Client will run from a local copy.

This Orbit Client Server configuration reduces the network traffic when starting the Orbit Client on a local workstation.

One local client copy can also be used by multiple users e.g. within a 2nd local office network.



The disadvantage is the special attention required when updating Orbit and some additional configurations to manage data produced by an Orbit Client.


Our approach could be called (for a nice visual) the client orbit. And, just like it sounds, it places our client at the center of our universe, allowing us to best support and reinforce them along their path to digital transformation.


World-class client success depends, not only upon fierce client focus, but also upon consistent and enthusiastic forward motion. Via our 33 Matrix, Atwix delivers a higher-touch service to fewer clients, which enables the highest quality client outcomes and project deliverables.


To ensure our own long term success, Atwix places our client squarely at the center of our universe. We orbit our client as they traverse their journey to digital transformation and eCommerce success.


All new clients need to book a 15-minute consultation with one of our stylists before making a big change. This is especially true for any type of color or highlight change, or if you are not sure what service is right for your hair. We need to know what your hair is like now in order to get it where you want it to be. Please call us at 802-860-6240 or click the button below to schedule your consultation.


We have a lot of different services that we offer. On our services page you can find a description of each service and what it means. If you have questions, we recommend doing a web search on before and after pictures to see the difference in each process. Or, if you have an inspirational photo, bring it to your consultation so we can tell you what technique will give you that look.


SSH access to ORBIT machines requires the use of public key authentication. If you try to connect using the username and password that you use for accessing the scheduler and status pages, you will receive the following message:


You need to configure the SSH client on your computer to use a private key for connecting to ORBIT machines instead of a password. Additionally, the corresponding public key needs to be added to your ORBIT account. This page describes the procedure for generating a public/private key pair, configuring your SSH client, and uploading the necessary public key to your ORBIT account. The instructions here are for specific SSH client software, if you use a different SSH client than those referenced here, please follow the documentation provided with that SSH client and use the instructions here for reference.


These instructions assume you will be using a standard command-line SSH client for linux. If you have not already done so, ensure that you have it installed by running the following commands in a command-line terminal:


This process will generate and store a private key and a public key file. The private key will be stored in the file and location you specify when prompted, and the public key file will be named the same as your private key file but with a .pub extension.


As a side note, expect to see a default auto generated public key in the list (ends with @internal1). This is used for SSH access between machines inside the ORBIT network. Please do NOT delete this key.


This is a normal message that occurs when your computer connects via SSH to another that it has never connected to before or if the "fingerprint" of the other machine changed (due to replacement or reconfiguration). Simply type yes or click "Yes" and connection will proceed normally.


As long as you have at least one public key configured in your profile, use your SSH client to connect to gw.orbit-lab.org and run the following commands there. You do not need to make a reservation in the scheduler for this.


In the video below, the Flight Robotic Arm System 1 (RAS-1) is executing an exercise called the Gauntlet which moves the arm through a series of poses that exercise the full motion of all seven degrees of freedom. RAS-1 completed integration and is now in preparation for unit level thermal vacuum testing.


Our next generation system, Mission Extension Pods, are a smaller and less expensive life extension service that only performs orbit control. The new pods augment the propulsion system of aging satellites and provide six years of life extension. The Mission Robotic Vehicle will be used to install these pods on existing in-orbit commercial and government client satellites.


Our vision is to establish a fleet of commercial servicing vehicles in GEO that can address most any servicing need. Northrop Grumman continues to make deep investments in in-orbit servicing and is working closely with U.S. Government agencies to develop the next generation space logistics technologies. These technologies include robotics and high-power solar electric propulsion to enable future services building upon our keep-it-simple approach to satellite life extension. These future services are expected to include:


The biggest challenge of the latest demonstration was replanning the rendezvous approach with the use of only four of the eight thrusters on the servicer. This restricted the ability of the servicer to perform detailed rendezvous maneuvers with the client as originally planned. While a system issue had an impact on three of the thrusters, the root cause for the loss of one thruster is not clear and is under joint investigation by Astroscale and Bradford/ECAPS, the thruster supplier for the ELSA-d mission.


Several carefully planned maneuvers were conducted over the past two months to prepare the servicer for a controlled close approach rendezvous with the client. On April 7, using the limited set of available thrusters, the servicer successfully maneuvered to a distance of 159 meters from the client, and the ability of the servicer to search for and detect the client was validated, enabling a transition from absolute navigation, which relies on GPS and ground-based observations, to relative navigation, using on-board sensors. This handover has been the most challenging operation of the ELSA-d mission so far and is widely recognized as one of the more difficult capabilities to prove for satellite servicing operations.


With the completion of this critical operation, the servicer has once more been maneuvered away from the client and will remain at a stable distance for several months. During this time the team will analyze the next phase of the mission, including the potential for a safe and viable magnetic recapture of the client.


Now we need to give the API Client permission to read and write to this container. So scroll down to the Access Control section of the new container details page, and click Add Access Rule. Set the Type to API Client then select the API client that we just created. Then set Access to Read + Write, and click Save


Now you just need to configure your chosen backup software. Some tools, such as restic, natively support the OpenStack Swift API but most others will at least happily integrate via SFTP (or even our S3 compatible API).


Decoding transmissions using a modifiable python script, which can be easily altered for individual satellites. Currently, it is also utilized with the Kaitai Struct, which is used by the SatNOGS Dashboard. If a struct is present for your satellite, you can more or less just exchange it. The script converts the transmission data to .json files, which are afterwards read in. Therefore also non SatNOGS data could be used if provided in the right .json format


A 3D rendering of the earth with the satellite orbit. Using SGP4 orbit model (with NAIF SPICE toolset). If quaternions and angular rates are provided in the transmitted data, the visualization can display the orientation of the orbit


The tool can be downloaded (already compiled for windows) under my GitHub page GitHub - Olgidos/SOMPviewer: Satellite orbit and data visualisation tool based on SatNOGS data - developed for SOMP2b TU Dresden.


On a typical day, I check my emails and reply to all the urgent ones first, manage Orbit workflow daily and billing, manage all new clients and welcome them to Orbit. I am also on the phone a lot, chatting to the ATO, ASIC and ABR, and of course, clients.


Focusing on the bigger picture rather than the little one. I love working with new clients who come to us with issues or problems that I can help solve and taking the stress out of clients lives, knowing that we have their back.


Working from home allows me to get back a few hours that would normally be spent commuting to and from work, so I can whip up an early dinner, go for an afternoon walk, and play in the park with Darcy.


We offer the convenience of technical personnel where our clients need them when they need them. So whether you need training, increased user adoption, temporary support, or long-term sustainment, we work with our clients to provide the solution that makes sense.
