The space domain is changing rapidly. What was once viewed primarily as an enabler of terrestrial operations has become a contested operational environment in its own right. Space systems now underpin everything from missile warning and precision navigation to communications, intelligence collection, and joint force command and control. As threats evolve and mission complexity increases,…
Inside Astrion’s role in Artemis II recovery NASA’s Artemis II has accomplished its mission. On April 10, 2026, after a 10-day journey around the Moon, the Orion spacecraft reentered Earth’s atmosphere at speeds approaching 24,000 miles per hour, before parachutes slowed it to a safe splashdown in the Pacific Ocean off Southern California. While splashdown…
Through its partnership with Don Bosco Cristo Rey High School, Astrion participates in the Corporate Work Study Program; an initiative designed to give students real-world experience while building a stronger future workforce pipeline. This partnership is real work experience, helping students understand the value of professional responsibility while building skills they will carry into college and their careers.
Astrion supports cyber test and evaluation efforts across advanced fifth-generation aircraft, next-generation bomber platforms, and distributed cross-domain command-and-control (C2) architectures operating under contested spectrum conditions. These systems function as highly networked computing environments, where avionics, communications, software, and radio-frequency (RF) systems interact continuously.
As Department of War (DOW) systems grow more connected, cyber cannot be added at the end. In architectures of this scale, it must be engineered in from the beginning.
Recently promoted to Vice President of Business Development for Navy & MDA, Bobby Brown brings a mission-first mindset and decades of operational and strategic experience to Astrion. A retired U.S. Navy commander and naval aviator, Bobby now leads high-impact growth initiatives that support some of the nation’s most critical defense priorities.
Astrion’s approach to secure, field-validated software integration across Army platforms As U.S. Army systems become more software-defined and operations more data-driven, the ability to model, integrate, validate, and sustain digital capability in the field is no longer just a technical challenge. It is now critical to operational success. This need is reflected in the Army’s…
A Mission Assurance Tool, Not Just a Compliance Requirement Cyber threats don’t wait…and systems can’t afford to fail. In today’s battlespace, attacks hit faster and with greater precision than ever before. Systems that can’t withstand them don’t just break, they compromise missions, put lives at risk, and expose national security. That’s why cyber test and…
Supporting Warfighter Readiness Through Systems Thinking and Strategic Execution: Spotlighting Lenea The Faces of Astrion series celebrates the talented, innovative and dedicated individuals who drive our mission forward. Through these spotlights, we’re highlighting the experience, insights and passion of team members who make real impact every day. In celebration of Black History Month, we are…
How Astrion enables agile embedded support in high-threat environments In high-threat environments, the margin for error is razor-thin. That’s why the Army is rethinking sustainment, not as a support function, but as a strategic capability that fuses logistics, software, and field-level integration. This evolution is reshaping how we keep systems mission-ready under pressure. Today, sustainment…
Advancing defense testing with distributed LVC environments A swarm of enemy drones emerges over a crowded coastline. Below, commercial ships navigate busy shipping lanes. Overhead, friendly fighter jets patrol contested airspace. From orbit, satellites track the unfolding situation, while adversary ballistic missiles point toward critical infrastructure. This isn’t science fiction. It’s the kind of multi-domain,…
As space becomes increasingly crowded, Astrion is making that expansion safe and sustainable I was fortunate to attend the International Astronautical Congress in Sydney, where the Maldives announced the creation of a national space fund, evidence of how the race to orbit now includes players few would have imagined a decade ago. Space is no…
Strengthening communities through partnership, purpose, and impact. Astrion in Action recently completed its 2026 fall grant cycle by joining the Community Foundation of Greater Huntsville for its annual Giving Tuesday celebration, one of the region’s largest community giving events of the year. At the event, Astrion’s Jennifer Damewood proudly presented a philanthropic grant to the…
