Teams have successfully established communications with Katalyst Space's robotic servicing spacecraft LINK, which is designed to raise the orbit of NASA's Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory to a higher altitude.
Making contact with LINK was the spacecraft's first in-orbit operation, after launch and separation Friday from Northrop Grumman's Pegasus XL rocket and power-on.
Over the next several weeks, Katalyst will perform checkout procedures for LINK, including assessments of its propulsion, sensor, and navigation systems.
