Overview

What is Orbitport?

Orbitport is a gateway to orbital services such as cTRNG (cosmic True Random Number Generator) or spaceTEE, served by multiple providers & satellites to ensure high availability and reliability.

Orbitport provides a unified API to access services from multiple sources, with the ability to switch between them in case of failure. It also provides a local fallback (for supported services) in order to streamline the flow of requests and to overcome high loads or downtimes of the underlying sources.

What is cTRNG?

The cosmic True Random Number Generation (cTRNG) is an orbital service that provides true random numbers harvested from hardware on satellites, currently supporting cEDGE and Crypto2 by Aptos Orbital. The satellite also signs the generated data to ensure it was generated by the satellite and was not tampered with.
