Space Force official: Commercial satellites can do a lot more than we thought

So, we're off working now with that program office to go start off a more commercial line. And when I say commercial in this particular aspect, just to clarify, this is accomplishing the same GSSAP mission. Our operators will fly the GSSAP system using the same ground systems and data they do now, but these would be using faster, commercial build times... and cheaper, less expensive parts in order to bring that together in a faster sense.
