A scalable, extensible, multi-tenancy multi-mission configurable spacecraft system is provided that allows applications to be deployed and managed across many spacecraft. One embodiment includes a plurality of satellites in orbit, where each satellite includes an antenna, a memory configured to store a non-virtualized operating system and one or more software applications, and a processor connected to the antenna and the memory. The processor is configured to run the non-virtualized operating system and to run the one or more software applications. The processors and the applications can be managed by ground terminals or other satellites.
