"XCUBE-1 is the cornerstone of our constellation of satellites delivering high-value hyperspectral data for a diverse range of applications," said Jeff Rich, Xplore Founder and Chief Executive Officer. He continued, "We are excited to begin providing our partners and dual-use customers with high-quality hyperspectral data. The launch and operation of our first satellite is a major achievement for Xplore's team."
Post-launch, Xplore was able to immediately confirm deployment and establish communications with the XCUBE-1 satellite. Xplore is using its own cloud-based mission control software, Major Tom®, to transmit commands and control the satellite with a network of ground stations around the globe.
XCUBE-1 is designed to deliver high-value hyperspectral data products for applications including Earth observation, space domain awareness, maritime domain awareness and astronomy. Notably, Xplore was granted a Tier-3 license by the National Atmospheric and Oceanic Administration (NOAA) – signifying its position among the nation's most capable remote sensing systems.
"With this launch, Xplore brings a new, cutting-edge hyperspectral monitoring capability into global geospatial data markets. This satellite imaging capability provides unique insights across a wide range of commercial and national security markets at a time understanding developments on Earth and in space is as important as ever," said Kevin O'Connell, Xplore's Strategic Advisor and Former Director U.S. Space Commerce Department.
Xplore's satellite will capture world-leading 4.2-meter spatial resolution of Earth observation targets in a wide array of spectral bands. It will provide critical data to commercial companies in insurance, agriculture, finance, defense, intelligence, and civilian government agencies focused on disaster prevention for climate weather events.
"We invite potential customers to explore how Xplore's hyperspectral data can address their specific use cases," said Lisa Rich, Xplore Founder and COO. She continued, "We are eager to collaborate and unlock the potential of this revolutionary technology."
