Satlantis launches GARAI B – INNOSAT UNAMUNO Earth observation satellite

GARAI B – INNOSAT UNAMUNO successfully launched aboard SpaceX's Transporter-16 rideshare mission. It is Satlantis's eighth mission and fifth fully integrated satellite. The approximately 108 kg microsatellite is based on OHB Sweden's InnoSat platform and carries iSIM-90 and iSIM-170 optical instruments. Its four observation channels include visible, near-infrared, short-wave infrared and polarimetry, with onboard data fusion intended to improve territorial coverage.

Why it matters

The mission provides further flight heritage for Satlantis's integrated imaging technology and demonstrates its ability to deliver complete small-satellite systems. The onboard data-fusion capability could improve the commercial utility of its imagery for defense, environmental and infrastructure-monitoring customers.
