Leaf Space ground station completed at Spaceport Nova Scotia

Spaceport Nova Scotia infrastructure update

Today, Leaf Space announced the completion of the ground station at Spaceport Nova Scotia.

The station's antenna, radome and supporting electronics rack have now been installed and are activated on site, making the facility available for commercial satellite traffic. This ground station will support high-speed data downloads for satellite operators around the world, providing efficient, mission-critical communications with space assets through a strategic gateway on Canada's Atlantic coast. This is another important step in building the infrastructure and capabilities that will connect Nova Scotia to the global space industry.

"The completion of Leaf Space's first Canadian ground station demonstrates Spaceport Nova Scotia's ability to attract leading international space companies and support critical space infrastructure here in Canada... We are proud to welcome this new capability to the spaceport and strengthen Canada's growing sovereign space ecosystem." -Robert Feierbach, President of Maritime Launch USA
