OpenC3 COSMOS v7.2
/ COMMAND & CONTROL · FOR HARDWARE

Every device,
one console.

COSMOS is hardware interface and orchestration. We get every piece of equipment reading from the same sheet of music — from integration & test through launch, mission ops, and de-orbit.

/ THE CONSOLE

Built by engineers who’ve actually been on console at T-minus.

Hardware integration, telemetry & commanding, Script Runner, limits & alerts, dashboards, logging & replay, plugins and an App Store, and enterprise security — every feature exists because a mission needed it.

  • If it talks, COSMOS talks to it
  • Automate test campaigns in plain Ruby or Python
  • Decommutate telemetry at line rate
  • 50+ plugins by end of 2026
/ BUY VS BUILD

No internally developed tooling will even come close.

/ MANIFEST

People building hardware are literally changing the world with their machines.

We exist to give those builders the console they deserve —

the same engine the primes fly, free and open, all the way through to your first launch and your hundredth.

/ ACROSS THE LIFECYCLE

One COSMOS across the entire hardware lifecycle.

From first power-on at the bench to on-orbit operations — customers pull their I&T configurations forward into ops. No tool-swap. No re-learning. No re-write.

Wherever hardware exists, so should COSMOS.

Aerospace, drones and defense (UxV), home automation, robotics, manufacturing — same engine, different mission.
