Alone in space🛰️ The two @iceye_global radar satellites, part of the Greek National Small Satellites Programme, have been deployed and are now flying solo. They are set to strengthen disaster response and environmental monitoring for Greece.
Separation confirmed! All five new SAR satellites separated from Falcon 9. This launch further expands our constellation and deploys satellites for customer missions, increasing sovereign capabilities and resilience worldwide. Thank you @SpaceX and @Exolaunch!
