Satellite Imaging Corporation products

Advanced and upcoming Albedo Space Corporation (Albedo) with office locations in Denver, Colorado and Austin, Texas, USA will offer 10-centimeter high-resolution electro-optical satellite imagery to customers within local governments, private industry, energy, insurance, agriculture, environmental, wildlife conservation, monitoring carbon and methane offset, and many other applications. In July 2020, Albedo was granted a license to collect 10-centimeter commercial panchromatic satellite imagery from NOAA and 40-cm 4-band (RGBN) multispectral imagery. The imagery will improve and aid government agencies and commercial companies in the applications of engineering, agriculture, forestry, urban planning, and many other AI and remote sensing applications.

Pleiades Neo 5 and 6 Satellite Launch: On December 20, 2022, at 10:47 p.m. (local time in French Guiana),Arianespace announced the loss of the Vega C launcher carrying Pléiades Neo 5 and 6 satellites to complete the Pleiades Neo constellation. Under standard procedure, the order of destruction of the launcher was given by Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES), including the Pleiades Neo 5 and 6 satellites were destroyed. Pleiades Neo 5 and 6 satellites were to join the first two satellites, Pleiades Neo 3 and 4, that launched in April and August 2021.

The first two (2) SuperView Neo Satellites were launched on April 29, 2022, from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, People’s Republic of China, as part of an 28 satellite constellation. SuperView Neo 1 and 2 are two commercial remote sensing satellites that will provde 30cm high resolution panchromatic and 4-Band multispetral satellite imagery. The SuperView satellites were manufactured by the China Association of Science and Technology (CAST) and will offer customers 30cm Pan and 1.2m 4-Band MS Satellite image data. SuperView Neo support applications in agriculture, urban development, environmental and water monitoring, natural resources, wildlife tracking, 3D modeling, defense, and transportation.

MAXAR Technologies` new WorldView Legion Satellite Constellation will be launched by a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and is targeted for launch on February 28, 2023 at 00:00 (UTC). Check back here to watch the live coverage (if available). WorldView Legion Satellite Constellationis the next-generation satellite constellation and will provide 30cm high-resolution satellite imagery. The WorldView Legion will be transported in low orbit of an altitude of 450km and will have 15 revisits per day. WorldView Legion will support and enable advanced persistent monitoring from sundown to sun up in real time.

On January 7, 2019, Maxar Technologies Inc. reported that its WorldView-4 satellite experienced a failure in its control moment gyros ("CMGs"), preventing the satellite from collecting imagery due to the loss of an axis of stability. Efforts are ongoing in conjunction with its suppliers in an attempt to restore satellite functionality, but thus far these efforts have been unsuccessful. At this time, Maxar believes that WorldView-4 will likely not be recoverable and will no longer produce usable imagery. Maxar operations have put the WorldView-4 satellite in a safe configuration and will continue to monitor the satellite`s location and health. The satellite was built by Lockheed Martin and the CMGs were provided by Honeywell.
