Overview

• Space Operations Command approved ATLAS for initial operations following focused testing and a trial that measured performance against legacy tools.
• Developed by L3Harris with Space Systems Command as prime integrator, the system fuses satellite and ground radar data into a shared operational picture.
• Operators at Mission Delta 2 have been using ATLAS on the ops floor to generate tracking data published to Space-Track.org.
• A $90 million contract awarded in March tasks L3Harris with delivering astrometric tools to expand ATLAS capabilities.
• The service aims to remove dependencies on SPADOC, though no decommission date is set, after the program slipped nearly three years from a 2022 target.
