Grant Activity:
KAIROS-1: Space Clock Technology Demonstrator
Purpose:
The Kairos-1 Mission will build a next-generation atomic clock and place it in orbit. To de-risk this ambitious plan, we will conduct two other earlier launches to demonstrate space operation of key components of the atomic clock. We will work with available launch partners to obtain access to those launches at low or zero cost.
Kairos-1 will result in Australia launching one of the globes most complex quantum devices into orbit. We will verify the clock performance and be able to demonstrate its superiority against current space-based global navigation satellite systems clocks. Clocks are a key underpinning resource for navigation, timing synchronisation and numerous other space activities - this mission will place Australia and QuantX at the forefront of that.
