Sidus Space, the Space-as-a-Service satellite company, issued a pair of announcements this week related to a major change in executive management and final testing of its LizzieSat. On Monday (October 30), Sidus Space announced that CTO Jamie Adams will be leaving his company, vacating his board seat, and that the company is eliminating the CTO position altogether, potentially indicating major changes for the company’s future direction. Then, the next day, the company also announced that it “successfully completed environmental testing” for its debut LizzieSat-1 satellite.
