ASAT tests, intentional debris generating events, are reckless and should be internationally banned. It puts lives at risk and jeopardizes all space assets.
US State Dept confirms the Russian antisatellite missile test. I condemned the 2007 Chinese test, the 2008 US test, the 2019 Indian test, and I equally condemn this one. Debris-generating antisatellite tests are a bad idea and should never be carried out.

For those paying attention, we launched Wednesday afternoon. This is first light on a SAR satellite, with deployable structures, less than 60 hours after launch. It’s an amazing team that worked incredibly hard to do this. They cant all be this easy but it’s fun when it is.
“First Light” images from our newest #SAR satellite have been released! #Giza #Ijen #BocaChica The team is delighted with the 50cm resolution quality data. We look forward to providing even more imaging capacity from the Capella Constellation after final calibrations.

A fun little piece sharing what goes into commissioning our spacecraft.
What happens to a #SAR satellite after launch? Our space operations team put together a simple explainer to walk you through every stage of the commissioning process from deployment to “First Light”. https://t.co/U0WbSoztH9

Another launch another smooth first contact. So proud of this team for working hard to make it all go well and also having fun along the way. 😁
We officially have first contact! The newest #SAR satellite in the Capella Constellation is in good health and we will continue the commissioning process. Stay tuned over the following weeks for very high resolution first light images. Any requests?

Amazing work by the team to get to this point. Getting things right is more important than going fast, but with practice and hard work in improving systems, tools, and processes you can do both 😁
We achieved another milestone last week! Learn how the team launched and fully commissioned its latest #SAR satellite in 5 days. Our blog will take you behind the scenes with spacecraft deployment footage and celebrations back on Earth.

Been quite a journey. Thank you @aiprof_mykel for being an incredible mentor and supporter along the way. Excited for the work in task planning and automated mission operations to come!
SISLer Duncan Eddy's PhD thesis defense is now available online. Check out his awesome work on planning for satellite systems!

Also wouldn’t have been possible without the most kick-ass group of people ever, we’ve come a long way from a Palo Alto garage. Super proud of the what everyone did to make this happen.

Super hyped to be able to share the footage from our reflector deployment. Best day at work ever. There may also be a relationship between doing space deployables and going bald 🤔
In a @CNBC exclusive @thesheetztweetz goes behind the scenes at Capella to cover: ✅ Rare footage of our newest SAR satellites deploying their radar systems ✅ First light images from the Transporter-1 mission ✅ A new partnership with IQT Read in full 👉

Awesome to finally have this announced publicly, and incredibly proud to be working with such talented people making it possible. And yes there may have been some test collects of my house 😁
1/ We are incredibly proud to officially be the highest resolution commercial #SAR provider in the world! Today we are revealing our “Spot” imagery at 50cm x 50cm. 👉

Incredibly proud of our team at Capella and our partners at RocketLab.
Thank you @rocketlab for a smooth ride to space. Our team has taken over the operations and has made successful contact with Sequoia. We will take the next few weeks to go through commissioning and calibration.

We have been seeing a steady growth in the mean age of the TLE data since the beginning of February, with values of 2.0 days or more being the norm at least part of each day over the past week.
