Ascent achieved a new milestone – the AEMS (Autonomous Environmental Monitoring and Surveillance) module has now been successfully delivered and deployed at the Transport Canada test site!
Just days into testing, AEMS has already faced freezing rain, strong winds, and even a regional power outage—and came through with flying colours.
Thanks to its retractable solar array and integrated battery storage, the module maintained autonomous operation and uninterrupted communication throughout. It’s a strong early validation of the system’s resilience and readiness for real-world conditions.
