Abstract

A ground-based satellite control station to control an array of nanosatellites in low earth orbit to produce an illumination event visible at a predetermined ground location. The nanosatellites in the array may have an illumination element, and array of nanosatellites in low earth orbit (LEO) may controllably apply their illumination to be visible on the ground. The nanosatellites may be coordinated by the control station to provide illumination events visible on the ground at particular locations and particular times.
