When fully operational in near equatorial Low Earth Orbit, the NeuSAR-2 Constellation will provide high-revisit coverage across the equatorial region, delivering high-resolution imaging to support missions such as environmental monitoring and disaster response planning. ST Engineering will also commence research and development to build POLARIS, a new optical imaging satellite for real-time Earth observation with next-generation capabilities such as onboard AI processing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Low Jin Phang<\/strong>, Chief Operating Officer for Defence &amp; Public Security, and President for Digital Systems, ST Engineering, said, \u201cOur space programme is founded on proven engineering excellence and technical innovation, enabling us to develop more advanced SAR and optical imaging satellites in Singapore for a wide range of missions. In addition, our innovative satellite systems and geospatial solutions unveiled today at Space Summit 2026 leverage artificial intelligence (AI)&nbsp;to solve real-world problems for customers worldwide.\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Innovative geospatial solutions for space operations and environmental monitoring<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At Space Summit 2026, ST Engineering also showcased its latest geospatial solutions integrated with advanced technologies. MiNERVA HUB is a <strong>space situational awareness<\/strong> platform that integrates space object tracking, conjunction risk analysis and space weather forecasting, enabling proactive space traffic management and helping satellite operators mitigate collision risks. Earthsurance is a comprehensive assessment and monitoring platform designed to support projects aimed at reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advancing space engineering competencies in Singapore<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From advancing next-generation Earth observation satellites and turning geospatial data into actionable insights that support agriculture, maritime safety, environment monitoring and disaster management, ST Engineering&#8217;s satellite business has been at the forefront of Singapore\u2019s space ecosystem for over 20 years. Working with local start-ups and SMEs, ST Engineering\u2019s satellite business has contributed to the growth of Singapore\u2019s indigenous space engineering competencies. The Group was also recently selected to design and deliver an Earth observation&nbsp;SAR satellite&nbsp;and its mission control infrastructure for a customer in the UAE, underscoring the Group\u2019s proven leadership in space technology.<\/p>\n<p>ST Engineering\u2019s participation at the Singapore Airshow 2026 comprises its space technology showcase at the Space Summit 2026, booth B02, and the ST Engineering Pavilion (booth G01) at Changi Exhibition Centre, focused on the Group\u2019s multi-disciplinary capabilities, technology leadership and engineering excellence across the air, land, sea, digital and emerging domains.<\/p>\n<div class=\"new-product-widget related-content-list my-3\">\n<h4 class=\"heading\">Related Links<\/h4>\n<ul class=\"list-unstyled mb-0\">\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-sm fa-angle-right text-primary\"><\/i>ST Engineering iDirect and Capgemini Join Forces to Develop 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-sm fa-angle-right text-primary\"><\/i>ST Engineering to Supply a SAR Satellite for the UAE\u2019s Sirb Constellation Project<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"fa fa-sm fa-angle-right text-primary\"><\/i>What are the different types of SAR Imaging techniques?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ST Engineering announced the next phase of its space programme at the Space Summit@Singapore Airshow 2026, comprising the design and development of satellites in Singapore for the next few years and new geospatial solutions integrated with advanced technologies, contributing new milestones in Singapore\u2019s space industry.
