Tstar Satellite Platform Family

Tstar is TÜBİTAK UZAY’s named family of satellite platforms for low Earth orbit, geostationary orbit and deep-space missions. The family groups adaptable spacecraft architectures with mission-specific payload, power, communications and attitude-control capabilities. TstarL-100 is the Earth-observation platform flown by İMECE, while TstarG-100 gained geostationary heritage through TÜRKSAT 6A. The development portfolio also includes the TstarL-101 follow-on observation platform, TstarD-100 for lunar and deep-space work, and TstarC-100 for a new microsatellite generation. These branches have different payload limits, service-life targets and propulsion arrangements; their performance belongs to the individual platform designs.
