GEARRS2
Deployment: May 2015
Launched from P-POD aboard an Atlas-5, GEARRS2 was developed with a shockingly quick 45-day turnaround. Funded by AFRL, this satellites's mission was to test new instrumentation and to further characterize the capabilities afforded by the Globalstar Network.

GEARRS1
Deployment: March 2015 - Reentry November 2015
GEARRS1 (Globalstar Experiment and Risk Reduction Satellite) was Indiana's first commercial satellite. After GEARRS1 power systems withstood a year on the shelf, the satellite exceeded expectations, fulfilling main objectives and performing beyond expectations.

TSAT

Deployment: April 2014 - Reentry May 2014
TSAT (Taylor Satellite or Test Satellite) was a satellite of firsts. Developed in close coordination with the Taylor University Physics and Engineering Department, NSL provided the communications systems, and engineering expertise necessary to make this box stand out among the crowd. Among other things, it was the first satellite from Indiana to be put into orbit.
