For over 25 years, CCT Corporation has designed, developed, and successfully deployed mission critical systems focused on space launch operations, test range automation, border security and surveillance, telemetry processing, and commercial process control.
Command and Control Technologies Corporation provides real-time mission critical automation to help decision makers control their operations efficiently and effectively. CCT specializes in the design and development of highly automated control systems for mission critical applications like test ranges, space launch, and industrial process control.
Command and Control Technologies Corporation (CCT) has begun initial update of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport Pad 0A control systems in preparation for support of the newly redesigned Northrop-Grumman Antares 330 Medium Lift Launch Vehicle. Under contract to the Virginia Commercial Spaceflight Authority, CCT will modify existing pad control systems to support upcoming vehicle design changes.
Modifications will be made to support the newly designed first stage which incorporates Firefly, Inc. Miranda engines and composite first stage structures and tanks. These replace previous Russian and Ukrainian components making the Antares 330 fully American made.
Pad control systems will be upgraded to support concurrent first and second stage fueling operations and incorporate designs for long term supportability.
Antares performance upgrades will enable Antares 330 to continue to support the current Cygnus space station resupply mission as well as planning for future mission capabilities.
CCT has supported Antares launch operations since inception and looks forward to continuing support through the life of the program.
The Virginia Commercial Spaceflight Authority has extended CCT’s contract through 2023 for continued sustaining engineering support to the Universal Ground Control System at Launch Pad 0-A at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport. We are proud of our ongoing support to VCSFA and Northrop for the Antares ISS resupply mission and look forward to supporting system maintenance and upgrades going forward!
CCT engineers were on site for the Northrop Grumman NG-17 launch for space station resupply. CCT products and design engineering have supported Northrop and the Virginia Commercial Spaceflight Authority for all 17 Antares flights.
TITUSVILLE, FLORIDA – September 13, 2013 – Command and Control Technologies Corporation has completed final preparations to configure the launch pad control system for Orbital Sciences’ second Antares flight slated for launch from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport on NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia on September 17.
