There are 3 orbital zones.
Only one of them is fast enough for real-time cryptography.
🌐 Low Earth Orbit (LEO): 160–2,000 km up. The closest, fastest lane.
🧭 Medium Earth Orbit (MEO): 2,000–36,000 km. Home of GPS.
🛰️ Geostationary Orbit (GEO): 36,000+ km. Matches Earth’s rotation, appearing “stationary.”Farther away means broader coverage, but that distance comes at a cost.
The rule is simple: higher orbit = higher latency.
So if you're securing keys and running cryptographic operations in orbit, every millisecond counts.
That's the SpaceComputer advantage in LEO:
→ Low-latency communication
→ Physical isolation no data center can match
→ Lower launch costs
The future of trust infrastructure is in orbit.
