At Ophir, we honor Galileo Galilei, whose work in physics and astronomy still inspires science today. We create advanced lidar sensors for tough environments, using our expertise in optics and lasers to build small, powerful sensor payloads for aerospace, airborne, and ground use. We continue Galileo’s legacy by advancing space and remote sensing technologies.
Today is Galileo Day, a somewhat unknown holiday but one that resonates with the LightRidge Solutions team. Galileo's groundbreaking contributions to physics and his spirit of discovery live on at LightRidge where we pioneer solutions for space, C4ISR and airborne missions. Our advantage lies in our unmatched expertise in understanding and harnessing the physics of light, enabling us to identify and characterize objects day and night across vast distances – from Earth to cislunar – and through difficult atmospherics. Our partners turn to us for our world class physicists and collaborative approach when they need innovative and purpose-built solutions to address their most challenging missions. We are proudly pioneering the development of leading-edge technologies in optical/laser physics, data processing and machine learning, and our solutions support our nation’s most critical missions, continuing Galileo’s legacy of discovery and innovation. #SpacePioneers #agilephysics #LightRidgeSolutions #Galileo #opticalphysics #laserphysics #lasertechnology #physicstechnology #machinelearning #dataprocessing #cislunar

According to Chief of Space Operations, Gen. Chance Saltzman, the U.S. Space Force’s “competitive endurance” framework is vital “to achieve space superiority.” As the #SpaceForce continues to build this framework to help discourage conflict in space and fighting, the agency must take critical steps to deter space-enabled attacks. One key step includes developing spacecraft 🚀with dynamic capabilities and military principles – maneuverability, flexibility, and the concentration of force to orbital warfare. Don’t miss this 💡article by Josh Hartman, Chief Strategy and Growth Officer at LightRidge Solutions, as he examines why the integration of effective Dynamic Space Operations with Competitive Endurance is essential for success in space – more in SpaceNews. https://lnkd.in/eWKcV77e #SpaceDomainAwareness #CompetitiveEndurance
