Space start-up GalaxEye will launch “Mission Drishti,” India’s largest privately developed satellite combining optical and radar sensors to produce all-weather fused earth images, with applications in defence, agriculture, disaster response, and climate monitoring, aiming for a 10-satellite constellation by 2030
The new multi-sensor satellite will capture both Synthetic Aperture Radar data and data from optical sensors from the same satellite to improve the correlation and analytical utility of the data generated
Their mode to achieve the mission is by designing, developing and orbiting a 15 satellite constellation. Each one of the satellites would weigh not less than 150 kg and have a life span of five years.
