As our team continues working toward the launch of our planned constellation of 24 satellites, we have a huge development to share: we’ve signed a commercial launch contract with Orbital Sciences Corporation.

Orbital will launch six of our commercial high-resolution imaging and video-capable satellites into a 500-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit aboard the Minotaur-C space launch vehicle. These satellites are designed to deliver <80 cm resolution.

The launch is scheduled from California’s Vandenberg Air Force Base late next year and we couldn’t be more thrilled. More details can be found here.
