The effective date of these actions is the release date of this Notice, except where an effective date is specified. SAT-MOD-20220919-00111 E S3137 Capella Space Corp. Modification Grant of Authority Effective Date: 01/17/2023 Nature of Service: Earth Exploration Satellite Service On January 17, 2023, the Satellite Division modified the license of Capella Space Corp. to reflect changes to orbital parameters and maximum equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) density for the previously-authorized Capella-9 non-geostationary satellite orbit (NGSO) satellite and to include authority to construct, deploy, and operate an additional NGSO satellite, Capella-10. Capella will operate Capella-9 and Capella-10 in the earth-exploration satellite service (EESS) at an altitude of approximately 600 kilometers (+/- 50 kilometers) and inclination of 44 degrees (+/- 3 degrees), and also will conduct imaging at altitudes down to approximately 450 km during de-orbit. Capella will also operate Capella-10 with the same technical parameters as Capella-9, including using a center frequency of 9600 MHz and a bandwidth of 600 megahertz for SAR imaging, a center frequency of 8212.5 MHz and bandwidth of 337.5 megahertz for its EESS downlinks, a center frequency of 2036 MHz and bandwidth of 1.4 megahertz for its space operations uplinks, and a center frequency of 8027 MHz and bandwidth of 1.4 megahertz for its space operations downlinks. Capella-10 will operate inter-satellite links with the Inmarsat system, including all the satellites on the Commission's "ISAT" list, using frequencies assigned for operations by Inmarsat BGAN terminals in the 1525.0-1559.0 MHz transmitting (space-to-space) and 1626.5-1660.0 MHz receiving (space-to-space) frequency bands. In addition, the Division authorized Capella-10 for limited operations with an earth station for purposes of radar calibration in the 9400-9900 MHz band (Earth-to-space). This application was granted in accordance with the small satellite procedures in section 25.122 of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR § 25.122.
