ECU Space Integration Facility & SWIRSAT-2 Mission Showcase
Edith Cowan University (ECU) is pleased to invite you to the official opening of our Satellite Cleanroom Facility—a premier addition to Western Australia’s space infrastructure.
This facility represents a landmark collaboration between ECU and partner; LC60, an Australian Earth Observation (EO) satellite prime. LC60’s technical teams have worked alongside ECU’s own experts to uplift the facility to ensure it meets ISO 6 (Class 1000) standards, required for high-precision optical payloads and sensitive satellite electronics.
The countdown is now on for LC60’s SWIRSAT-2 mission. Within two weeks of the official opening, the cleanroom will go "live" for the first-ever integration of an optical payload into a satellite platform.
