At this stage, our work focuses on understanding how Máni can travel from Earth to the Moon, enter and maintain its operational lunar orbit, and perform its mission using the capabilities of the Big Cat 600 spacecraft platform.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>A major part of this work is the Earth-to-Moon transfer design. Reaching the Moon is considerably more complex than simply targeting its position in space. The launch date, departure geometry, transfer duration, spacecraft propulsion capability, and arrival conditions all influence the amount of propellant required and the conditions under which the spacecraft reaches the Moon.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>For Máni, we’re analysing a range of possible launch opportunities and transfer trajectories rather than relying on a single reference case. For 2029 alone, 23 candidate launch opportunities have been analysed, covering transfer geometries in both the second and fourth quadrants. The figure below illustrates these trajectories and shows how significantly the geometry of an Earth-to-Moon transfer can change depending on the launch opportunity.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr> \u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp style=\"text-align:center;\">\u003Cvideo class=\"video\" controls=\"\" width=\"1920px\">\n                    \u003Csource src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Forbit_mani_9f37fc0a37.mp4\" type=\"video\u002Fmp4\">\n                \u003C\u002Fvideo>\u003Ci>Watch how the Máni mission will operate in a polar orbit to deliver the first-ever ultra-high-resolution mapping of the lunar surface.\u003C\u002Fi>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"image\"> \u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>This analysis allows us to compare transfer duration, spacecraft manoeuvres, and lunar arrival conditions, and to understand how flexible the spacecraft design needs to be. As the mission and launch interface mature, the trajectory analysis will narrow down to a smaller set of preferred launch windows and transfer solutions.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Reaching the Moon is, however, only part of the problem. Once Máni arrives, the spacecraft needs to enter an orbit that enables its scientific observations while remaining compatible with propulsion, communication, power and operational constraints.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Detailed lunar orbit analysis is therefore another major activity during Phase A. Space Inventor is studying the mid-term evolution of candidate lunar orbits to understand their stability and to determine how frequently orbital correction manoeuvres may be required. At approximately 75 km altitude, variation in lunar gravity field causes the orbit to evolve over just a few weeks, requiring regular station keeping maneuvers every 2-4 weeks to keep the operational orbit. The orbit-maintenance manoeuvres are optimised to minimise ΔV while keeping key orbital parameters, such as altitude, eccentricity, and inclination, within predefined operational thresholds throughout the mission.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Máni is also an important step in the development of Space Inventor's Big Cat 600 platform for deep-space missions. Operating around the Moon introduces challenges significantly beyond those encountered in conventional Earth-orbiting missions. Propulsion, electrical power, thermal control, communications, navigation, and spacecraft autonomy must all work together in an environment where real-time intervention from the ground cannot always be assumed.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cspan style=\"font-size:18px;\">\u003Cstrong>Lightbulb Moments: Key Takeaway\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>The Phase A mission analysis connects trajectory and orbit design directly with spacecraft system engineering. By evaluating the mission and spacecraft as an integrated system, we can identify critical design drivers early and refine both the Máni mission architecture and the Big Cat 600 platform.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Over the coming phases, these analyses will be refined as launch opportunities, spacecraft configuration, propulsion performance, and operational requirements mature - progressively transforming Máni from a mission concept into a robust lunar mission design.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr> \u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"image\">\u003Cimg style=\"aspect-ratio:1920\u002F1080;\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fmani_bc600_778c0359aa.jpg\" alt=\"mani-bc600.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fthumbnail_mani_bc600_778c0359aa.jpg 245w,https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fxsmall_mani_bc600_778c0359aa.jpg 300w,https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fsmall_mani_bc600_778c0359aa.jpg 500w,https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fmedium_mani_bc600_778c0359aa.jpg 768w,https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Flarge_mani_bc600_778c0359aa.jpg 1024w,\" sizes=\"100vw\">\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp style=\"text-align:center;\">\u003Ci>Left: current design of the MÁNI satellite.

The IOCR acceptance confirms that the spacecraft and ESM payload are fully functional and performing to specification.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>During commissioning, all spacecraft systems — including power, communications, attitude control, and thermal subsystems — were successfully activated, tested, and verified. The satellite bus performed nominally, confirming the robust design and build quality of the full platform. The BIFROST satellite is based on Space Inventor’s proven micro-8 platform, which is designed for high-performance missions in challenging environments. Its modular architecture and scalable subsystems make it adaptable to a wide range of payloads, while maintaining reliability and resilience in orbit. The platform’s compact size and efficient power management are particularly well suited for surveillance applications, where both agility and endurance are critical. By combining robustness with flexibility, the Micro-8 ensures that missions like BIFROST can operate with confidence and deliver advanced capabilities within a small-satellite form factor.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>In parallel, the Electronic Support Measures (ESM) payload demonstrated its capability in orbit, delivering high-quality signal data. The receiver was able to detect and analyze radar pulses — including weak and complex signals — confirming its performance in a maritime surveillance context. Initial results showed the system’s ability to extract key radar pulse characteristics and angles of arrival, supporting advanced geolocation and radar signature analysis. These results demonstrate that BIFROST can not only capture the original pulse shape but also reconstruct key parameters for interferometric geolocation. This capability enables cataloguing of more complex pulse signatures, such as those employed by naval radars.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"table\">\u003Ctable>\u003Ctbody>\u003Ctr>\u003Ctd>\u003Cfigure class=\"image\">\u003Cimg src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fbifrost_commissioning_94bd0344c4.png\" alt=\"bifrost commissioning.png\" srcset=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fthumbnail_bifrost_commissioning_94bd0344c4.png 245w, https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fxsmall_bifrost_commissioning_94bd0344c4.png 300w, https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fsmall_bifrost_commissioning_94bd0344c4.png 500w, https:\u002F\u002Fbeneficial-confidence-e608107b82.media.strapiapp.com\u002Fmedium_bifrost_commissioning_94bd0344c4.png 768w\" sizes=\"100vw\" width=\"768\">\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp style=\"text-align:center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-size:10px;\">The ESM antennas’ ground coverage - here illustrated during a pass over the GIUK gap\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Ftd>\u003C\u002Ftr>\u003C\u002Ftbody>\u003C\u002Ftable>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp> \u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Danish Ministry of Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation, BIFROST Programme Manager, Martin Veicherts, states:\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003Cbr>\u003Ci>“With the Bifrost satellite project, Space Inventor has created a new level for upcoming Danish space missions.
