Now: Constellation v3.0 is in public beta

Software that thinks in galaxies,
not spreadsheets.

Anderson CloudNova builds high-throughput simulation and modelling infrastructure for climate research labs, observational astronomy, and the increasingly indistinguishable space between them.

Constellation Platform

Three modules, one shared substrate.

Constellation is a single distributed runtime. The modules below are how you talk to it, but they all see the same data, the same provenance, the same compute budget.

// 01

Nova-Sim

GPU-accelerated simulation primitives for radiative transfer, fluid dynamics, and orbital mechanics, composable into experiment graphs.

kernels: 240+ precision: fp64 / mixed checkpointing: deterministic
// 02

Nova-Obs

Pipeline for raw observational data: ingest, align, calibrate, and version. Built around an immutable, content-addressed asset store.

throughput: 12 GB/s/node formats: FITS, HDF5, Zarr provenance: W3C-PROV
// 03

Nova-Loop

Closed-loop experimentation. Define a hypothesis, let Nova plan runs against your budget, and review only the results worth your time.

schedulers: 4 (incl. Bayesian) quotas: per-PI, per-grant notify: Slack, email, page
Operating Record

A short, deliberate history.

We've grown by one product line per year. Each one had a research partner who paid us to figure it out with them, and then got first dibs on using it.

2022 · Q3
Founded in Pasadena

Two engineers and a postdoc, spun out of a JPL simulation team. First contract: a regional climate model.

2023 · Q4
Nova-Sim 1.0

First production simulation runtime. Adopted by three university labs in the same quarter.

2024 · Q3
Nova-Obs ships

Partnered with a southern-hemisphere observatory to ingest 8 PB of legacy data into the asset store.

2026 · Q2
Constellation v3.0

Three modules unified into one runtime. Beta opens to non-academic partners.

Bring us something hard.

If your problem fits inside a dashboard, you don't need us. If it spills over the edge, into petabytes, into multi-decade simulations, into wavelengths you can't see, write to orbit@cloudnova.systems.
