EDA spokesperson Andrew Mullin told Via Satellite that the satellite constellation would include nine LEO satellites that are able to collect imagery in a combination of 21 spectral bands. The satellites will operate 750-800 kilometers above Earth and a majority of the imagery collected will be 5-meter resolution.

Sara shares how Swarm’s strategy came out of her work in the early days of smallsat development, and how the company has seen a lot of demand for its remote Internet of Things (IoT) technology from customers in New Zealand and Australia. In typical TMC fashion, the conversation goes beyond satellite and Sara talks about how reading “Why We Sleep” more than a year ago changed her outlook on her sleep habits. Enjoy!
