Katalyst Space LINK Satellite Remains Operational Despite Failed Orbit Boost

The Katalyst Space LINK satellite was originally designed to raise the orbit of NASA's Swift Observatory.

During the mission execution, however, it became clear that the planned orbit boost could not be achieved.

Despite this setback, the operators continue to operate the satellite.

The Swift Observatory remains in its current orbit.
