Creare’s Space Technology Launched on L3Harris Missile Tracking Satellites Five missile defense satellites with cryogenic cooling systems driven by Creare LLC’s Miniature Cryocooler Controller Electronics for Tactical Space (MCCE-TS) successfully launched from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida. Originally developed in 2017 for NASA under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program with our partners from West Coast Solutions (WCS), the MCCE-TS optimally balances cost and mission reliability, enabling critical space missions at affordable costs. The cryogenic cooling systems will undergo two years of on-orbit operations during the life of the programs. L3Harris Technologies designed and built the satellites as part of the Missile Defense Agency’s (MDA) Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor (HBTSS) program and the Space Development Agency’s (SDA) Tranche 0 (T0) Tracking Layer program. MDA’s HBTSS satellite is an on-orbit prototype demonstration, providing fire control quality data able to detect, track, and target hypersonic, ballistic, and other advanced missiles. The other four infrared satellites complete SDA’s T0 program within their Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) at Low Earth Orbit, which will demonstrate missile warning, tracking, and targeting of advanced threats such as hypersonic missiles. Creare is honored to be part of these critical missions and a trusted supplier to L3Harris. Creare LLC is a small business with expertise in advanced research/development and low- to medium-volume production of specialized space hardware. We have been a leading developer of cryogenic components, cryogenic systems and cryocoolers for space for over 30 years. The company was founded in 1961 with its main site in Hanover, New Hampshire.

Congratulations to WAHTS Hearing LLC for successfully completing its first round of fundraising to accelerate the company's growth. The Wireless Automated Hearing Test System (WAHTS) enables easy and efficient implementation of occupational hearing testing and hearing protector fit testing. The system includes the OSHA- and ANSI-compliant, calibrated WAHTS headset & audiometer and the Audhere app. The technology was developed at Creare LLC with funding in 2013 from the NIH Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, then established as an FDA-approved product by Creare’s affiliate, Edare LLC. WAHTS Hearing was spun off to enable investment that will accelerate the use of WAHTS in the military and occupational health markets.
