KSAT, a privately owned company and a subsidiary of Graham Media Group, is headquartered in the US. Founded in 1957, it employs approximately 190 people and reported $125.4M in revenue as of 2023. Functioning as a tier 1 media tech buyer, the company specializes in providing media and TV services, operating as a regional TV station.
KSAT is preparing its Hyperion project for an in-orbit relay test for satellite data, which aims to transition the company's HYPER concept from design to demonstration, utilizing relay satellites as space-based ground stations to reduce the time operators need to receive critical satellite data. This follows an announcement on February 9, 2026, when KSAT highlighted Hyperion as a significant milestone for its HYPER initiative. The mission seeks to augment KSAT’s global ground network by extending it into space, demonstrating how relay satellites can function as in-orbit ground stations, thereby reducing latency and improving satellite data availability.
