Synspective Inc., a SAR satellite data and analytic-solution provider, announced that it has successfully acquired its first image from its second SAR satellite, “StriX-β”. “StriX-β” was launched by Rocket Lab’s Electron from New Zealand’s Mahia Peninsula launch site on March 1, 2022 (JST) and put into target orbit at an altitude of 561km in a sun-synchronous orbit (SSO). Since then, it has been operating effectively and has imaged cities around the world, including in Manila, Philippines, Brasília, Brazil, and Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Synspective is going to launch its first commercial prototype “StriX-1” later this year. As a result, it will further accelerate the improvement of operation technology for multiple satellites, strengthen data services, and advance analysis technology.
