1. A method of managing software application deployments to a satellite platform the method comprising: via a user interface, receiving user input indicative of deployment requirements for a software application to be deployed onto the satellite platform to perform at least an operation across one or more of a plurality of satellites comprising the satellite platform; determining current availability of in orbit resources in the plurality of satellites; processing the deployment requirements and the current availability of in orbit resources to determine deployment options for deployment of the software application to fulfil at least a portion of the deployment requirements using the current availability of in orbit resources and fulfil a remainder of the deployment requirements with one or more new satellites; based at least on the current availability indicating in orbit resources of the plurality of satellites being able to achieve all the deployment requirements, presenting via the user interface at least a first deployment option for deploying the software application to the one or more of the plurality of satellites in orbit to achieve the deployment requirements; and based at least on the current availability indicating in orbit resources of the plurality of satellites being unable to achieve all of the deployment requirements, presenting via the user interface at least a second deployment option for deploying the software application to the one or more of the plurality of satellites in orbit to fulfil at least the portion of the deployment requirements, and presenting specifications of the one or more new satellites not yet deployed into orbit to achieve the remainder of the deployment requirements not achieved by the plurality of satellites in orbit.
