Mid-Inclination Rideshare

The ELS-R platform is an uncrewed service that enables research, development, and manufacturing in space, followed by the return of results and materials to Earth. Compared to traditional methods that rely on crewed facilities such as the International Space Station (ISS), ELS-R offers greater flexibility, fewer operational constraints, and less stringent safety reviews, making it possible to access space more frequently and efficiently.

Exolaunch has secured launch capacity on MHI's H3 rocket for a mid-inclination rideshare mission scheduled for 2027. Exolaunch's first launch from Japan will serve several constellation customers and further diversify the company's global launch manifest. Manifest is TBD.

iQPS’s satellites are small, high-performance SAR satellites that use a lightweight, large, stowable antenna to collect high resolution images of Earth, even through clouds and adverse weather conditions. Ultimately, the iQPS constellation is planned to have 36 satellites capable of monitoring specific fixed points on Earth every 10 minutes.

Synspective's small StriX SAR-satellites can collect data with a ground resolution of 1-3m and a swath width of more than 10-30km.
