ICEYE launches four new satellites

ICEYE has successfully launched and deployed four new synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites into orbit aboard the Transporter-12 Rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, USA. 

So far they have launched 44 satellites into orbit for the company and its customers since 2018, with plans to launch more than 20 new satellites annually this year and in the future.

The satellites were manufactured by ICEYE in Finland and the United States and exclusively deliver a 25 cm resolution exclusively, the highest fidelity in the industry. They are a global leader in SAR satellite operations for high-fidelity Earth Observation, persistent monitoring, and natural catastrophe solutions.

SAR satellites can image any location on the Earth’s surface in any environmental condition, day or night. Their data provides precise, near real-time insights for ICEYE’s government and commercial customers. 

The newly launched satellites include the second ICEYE satellite for Space42, a UAE-based AI-powered SpaceTech company for their Earth Observation Space Program.
