ICEYE expands its Earth Observation capabilities with launch of two SAR satellites for mid-inclination orbit on the Bandwagon-2 mission with SpaceX

Published

Mid-inclination orbit provides more SAR-imaging opportunities at middle latitudes of the globe for ICEYE customers.

HELSINKI, Finland, Dec. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ICEYE, the global leader in SAR satellite operations for Earth Observation and persistent monitoring, announced today that it has launched two new satellites to its constellation of SAR satellites. Both satellites expand the availability of ICEYE’s latest imaging technology to deliver additional 25 cm imaging capacity. The satellites were integrated via Exolaunch and launched as part of the Bandwagon-2 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, USA. Both satellites have established communication, and early routine operations are underway. With today’s launch, ICEYE has successfully launched 40 satellites into orbit since 2018, with nine satellites launched in 2024 alone.

The new SAR satellites were launched into mid-inclination orbits; compared to a polar orbit, these mid-inclination orbits provide more than twice the collection opportunities at middle latitudes of the globe. ICEYE customers have many areas of interest in these middle latitudes (+/- 45 degrees), and these customers will benefit from increased persistence over these regions. Customers with imaging interests outside these middle latitudes will continue to benefit from the frequent revisit enabled by ICEYE’s dozens of satellites in polar orbits. ICEYE’s unique mix of mid-inclination and polar orbits provides its customers with deep revisit capabilities for targets all around the globe. The new satellites will serve ICEYE’s commercial missions as part of the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation owned and operated by ICEYE.

Rafal Modrzewski, CEO and Co-founder of ICEYE said: “This launch marks another significant milestone in ICEYE’s ability to provide our customers with a rich diversity of collection opportunities. We bolster our industry-leading SAR constellation and expand our customers’ collection opportunities in the areas most important to them.”

Today’s launch is another step forward in ICEYE’s steady drumbeat of innovative breakthroughs in Earth Observation. This year alone, ICEYE has, for example, introduced Dwell Precise, a new 25 cm imaging mode that offers its customers the highest-fidelity 25cm imaging capability, and adds advanced capability to ICEYE’s line of Dwell products; launched an API that allows customers to directly task its SAR satellite constellation; and launched ICEYE Ocean Vision to provide actionable intelligence for maritime domain awareness.

About ICEYE

ICEYE delivers unparalleled persistent monitoring capabilities to detect and respond to changes in any location on Earth, faster and more accurately than ever before.

Owning the world’s largest synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite constellation, ICEYE provides objective, near real-time insights, ensuring that customers have unmatched access to actionable high-quality data, day or night, even in challenging environmental conditions. As a trusted partner to governments and commercial industries, ICEYE delivers intelligence in sectors such as insurance, natural catastrophe response and recovery, security, maritime monitoring, and finance, enabling decision-making that contributes to community resilience and sustainable development.

ICEYE operates internationally with offices in Finland, Poland, Spain, the UK, Australia, Japan, UAE, Greece, and the US.  We have more than 700 employees, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.

Juliettdate, an online dating platform, has introduced a new feature called Drafts to improve communication on its dating platform.

TALLINN, Estonia, Dec. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Picture this: you’ve found an interesting match on a dating website, your conversation flows, and messages fly back and forth as you dive into an engaging discussion. Then, a technical glitch happens — your browser crashes, or you accidentally close the chat. Suddenly, the message you were crafting is gone, and you can’t quite remember what you wanted to say.

To make sure moments like this don’t disrupt your conversations, Juliettdate has introduced the Drafts feature. This handy addition allows users to save unsent or incomplete messages for up to 30 days. You can revisit, edit, and send your drafts at any time during this period.

How Draft Feature on Juliettdate Works

No matter if you’re composing a thoughtful reply or managing multiple conversations on the go, your progress remains securely saved.Drafts are synced across the platform’s web and mobile versions, allowing users to pick up right where they left off, whether on their phone or desktop.After 30 days, messages that haven’t been acted upon will be automatically removed.

The idea for the Drafts feature came straight from user feedback. Many shared how frustrating it was to lose messages mid-conversation, especially when the dialogue was meaningful. With this feature, Juliettdate users can stay connected and maintain the rhythm of their chats without worrying about interruptions or lost words.

The Drafts feature is just one of many ways Juliettdate works to improve the platform. In 2024, the company conducted over 120 product tests to improve the functionality and usability of its dating platform.
