    \n
  • 8-10 satellites will launch over the next four years.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • It is designed to provide \u201call-weather, all-time\u201d imagery capturing high-quality data day<\/strong> or night, in any weather.<\/li>\n
  • Each satellite is engineered as a remote-sensing Earth observation system<\/strong>, optimised for spatial, spectral and temporal resolutions to capture high-precision imagery.\n
      \n
    • It introduces GalaxEye\u2019s proprietary SyncFused Opto-SAR technology<\/strong>, which <\/span>combines synthetic aperture radar (SAR)<\/strong> and <\/span>high-resolution optical sensors<\/strong> into a <\/span>single integrated satellite system <\/strong>to <\/strong>p<\/span>rovides <\/span>simultaneous optical and radar imaging<\/strong> \u2014 a first for an Indian private satellite.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • It also enables high-precision, fused data output<\/strong> even through clouds, darkness, or adverse conditions<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
    • Weight:<\/strong> 160 kilograms \u2014 India\u2019s largest privately built satellite<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
