SATLANTIS PRESENTS ELCANO, THE NEW GENERATION OF FLEXSAT SATELLITES THAT INCREASES THE EFFICIENCY OF EARTH OBSERVATION BY A FACTOR OF 40

Satlantis presented ELCANO, a new generation of FlexSat satellites designed to combine multiple sensors and observation capabilities on a single platform. The system can image up to 400 km of irregular territory in one minute, potentially replacing missions that would otherwise require up to 40 satellites or 40 days of operation. The family includes optical, video, near-infrared, thermal, polarimetric and space-domain-awareness capabilities, with deployment planned from 2027.
