In the heart of Tamil Nadu, India, where tradition meets modern innovation, a bold new space venture took root, one that would redefine how we view satellites, space access, and national preparedness. This is the story of Origin Antares® Incorp., and the visionary behind it, Samkeeth Kumar D.
The Ignition: A Vision Beyond the Stars
What began as a young mind’s fascination with the cosmos soon crystallized into a mission to make space more accessible, affordable, and strategic. Samkeeth Kumar D, an ambitious dreamer and sharp Space Entrepreneur, observed a gap in India’s rapidly growing space sector – a need for compact, customizable, and scalable satellite solutions that could serve both civil and defence sectors.
It wasn’t just about sending a satellite to space. It was about democratizing space. It was about defending space. It was about eading from India. And so, Origin Antares® Incorp. was born.
Building from Scratch: The Rise of CubeSat Mass Manufacturing
The turning point came when Samkeeth realized that CubeSats – small, modular satellites, could be the gateway to empowering industries, universities, governments, and even schools to explore space without the astronomical costs.
From Earth observation to deep space exploration, from agriculture to defence – CubeSats became the Swiss Army knife of modern space infrastructure.
From Orbit to Nation: Entering the Defense Sector
As geopolitical tensions rose globally, space became more than a domain of exploration — it became a strategic frontier. Origin Antares® saw this transformation coming. Expanding into defence-grade satellite systems, the company began manufacturing and supplying:
- Anti-jamming communication satellites
- Surveillance and reconnaissance payloads
- Satellite systems integrated with heat-sensitive anti-terror sensors
- Anti-intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) tracking technologies
This wasn’t just engineering — it was a national responsibility. With Make in India spirit at its core, Origin Antares® partnered with several organizations and institutions to create a safer, smarter nation ready for space-age threats.
