Viasat's commercial ground-segment-as-a-service division. Real-Time Earth operates ~15 antennas worldwide for LEO Earth-observation downlink. Distinct from Viasat satcom; tracked separately because the GCAT operator field uses 'viasat-rte' for the ground-segment subsidiary.

METHODOLOGY

Launch history and subsystem outcomes aggregate from AstraVeris's launch_events table with Wilson 95% lower bounds on success rates. ARI scores come from the 11-factor composite (/finance/methodology/). Constellation counts derive from the live CelesTrak/GCAT object catalog. Gov contracts from USAspending.gov awards; private deals from deduplicated pipeline deal extraction. Absence of a row means "not tracked" — we never fabricate. See /methodology/ for the full data model and /data-licensing/ for licensing terms.

Not investment advice. For insurance underwriting, verify against primary-source filings and operator investigation reports.
