Orbital Missions
Discover our flagship satellite programs and orbital infrastructure projects. From launching from the African continent to establishing continuous orbital operations, our missions are designed to connect and elevate our society.
SouthSat-1
A high-resolution earth observation satellite specifically calibrated for the African climate. Built in collaboration with top South African universities, SouthSat-1 provides daily multi-spectral imaging to monitor agricultural yields, water basin levels, and urban expansion.
