The work is meant to improve the service\u2019s understanding of what\u2019s happening in space by flying smaller, low-cost sensors on various satellites in geosynchronous orbit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lord, who was previously president and chief executive of Textron Systems, left her role as undersecretary of defense for acquisition and sustainment in January 2021. Her time at the Pentagon coincided with the creation of the Space Force and she had oversight of some key space programs, including the GPS Next-Generation Operational Control Segment (OCX) and the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since her departure, Lord has joined the Voyager Space and AAR Corp. boards and is a senior fellow at Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab. Voyager specializes in on-orbit servicing \u2014 to include work with the International Space Station \u2014 and AAR provides a range of aviation services to commercial and government customers. Lord\u2019s decision to serve on the boards of smaller, nontraditional defense companies following her Pentagon service reflects a larger trend among former DOD officials, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/industry\/2022\/01\/10\/for-their-next-acts-former-trump-administration-dod-officials-look-beyond-traditional-defense-contractors\/\" target=\"_blank\">Defense News reported earlier this week<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lord said in the press release she\u2019s impressed with GEOST\u2019s expertise in the space domain. Beyond its focus on space-based missile warning sensors and domain awareness, the company has a portfolio of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, space traffic management and laser communications capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI firmly believe their powerful, yet affordable, small sensors will be the engine that enables the transformation of space architectures into the proliferated concept,\u201d she said. \u201cI am excited to join this team and contribute my own industry and government experiences to support GEOST\u2019s vision and impressive growth goals.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GEOST, a mid-sized space company based in Tucson, AZ, announced today it has appointed former Pentagon acquisition
