"EagleEye Deployment Confirmed"!! Now that the signal is connected to our team. Officially we can announce that the #EagleEye satellite has successfully separated from the rockets! This is just the beginning of this broadcast... "Greetings to the Galaxy!"✨
📡 We’ve made contact! Our operations team has successfully established communication with each of the Cluster 10 satellites.
LAUNCH SUCCESS! We’ve made contact with the Tanager-1 satellite & our SuperDoves in orbit!🛰️ Thx @SpaceX for the ride!🚀What a milestone! Thank you to @carbonmapper & @NASAJPL for your collaboration to make the Tanager-1 mission a reality. Its an incredible California success story -- a CA instrument on a CA satellite on a CA rocket for a CA customer! Excited to reveal CO2 & methane emissions from space with it. And with @Planet now having 400 spectral band imagery, we look forward to exploring myriad other use cases with our partners globally!

Mission success!We are so thrilled to share that our first hyperspectral satellite Tanager-1 successfully launched into orbit and made contact with our team.With Tanager-1 in orbit, we’ve expanded our capabilities, capturing phenomena that are invisible to the human eye, and helping to reveal greenhouse gasses in our atmosphere.With 36 SuperDoves, we aim to replenish our extensive PlanetScope constellation, capturing a near-daily scan of planet Earth.Read all about it:https://investors.planet.com/news/news-details/2024/Planet-to-Launch-Its-First-Hyperspectral-Satellite-Tanager-1-and-36-SuperDoves-with-SpaceX/default.aspx
🛰️PHISAT-2 UPDATE🛰️✅Launch✅Orbital placement✅First contact@Open_Cosmos is thrilled to confirm its latest satellite launch has achieved all three milestones 🎉Approximately one hour after launch, we received confirmation of the successful deployment of Phisat-2 from the deployer. Contact was made over Svalbard ground station and the flight team has started downloading telemetry nominally.Today marks our tenth launch with a 100% success rate in orbit. This amazing achievement is down to the dedication and expertise of our teams, and we extend our gratitude to everyone who played a part in making this mission a triumph, including @ESA_EO, @Ubotica, CEiiA, GEO-Kco, @CGI_Global, IRT, @thales_alenia_s, Simera and KP-Labs. 🎉👍🚀#OpenCosmos #PHISAT2 #Satellite #ESA #firstcontact

The customers for this mission included Aethero Space (USA), Australian ARC Industrial Transformation Training Centre for CubeSats, UAVs, and Their Applications (Australia), Capella Space (USA), Creotech (Poland), the European Space Agency, Fraunhofer Institute (Germany), Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) via GomSpace (Denmark), HawkEye 360 (USA), Bayanat (UAE) and Yahsat (UAE) via ICEYE (Finland), ICEYE (Finland), Lemu (Chile) and Norwegian University of Science and Technology via Kongsberg NanoAvionics (Lithuania), Loft Orbital (USA), Open Cosmos (UK), Plan-S (Turkey), Portland State Aerospace Society (USA), Pyras Technology (Taiwan), Rapidtek (Taiwan), Sateliot (Spain), Satellogic (Uruguay), Senegal Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation (MESRI), Hubble Labs via Spire Global (USA), and Unseenlabs (France). Exolaunch also provided its expert integration and deployment services to Planet (USA).
Our three new satellites have successfully made contact with our ground station network and are reporting in good health. Following full commissioning, these satellites will support the enhancement of our constellation capabilities with high-resolution, high-frequency satellite imaging.
✅ We've made contact with YAM-7! Stay tuned to @HydrosatI's page for mission updates. ⚡YAM-7 carries the names of every team member at Loft and represents the work that has gone into building our space infrastructure. 🪩
Launch success! Communication has been established with all four ICEYE #SAR satellites sent into orbit on SpaceX's Transporter-11 mission.Read more in our press release: https://hubs.li/Q02LDgrS0(Video:SpaceX)
When is(was) the deorbit burn? I just see 2S between trees near horizon, and it was quite bright...
Space enthusiasts/astronomers of X/Twitter or anywhere - any ideas what this bright descending object from 22:47 - 22:50 BST was over Herne Bay, Kent descending from the zenith to the horizon to the north. I'd punt a guess and say it's something to do with a rocket?
