𝙉𝙀𝙒 𝘾𝙊𝙉𝙏𝙍𝘼𝘾𝙏 𝘼𝙒𝘼𝙍𝘿𝙀𝘿 ! 🥳 HEMERIA will develop in collaboration with the French space agency CNES two high-end small satellites flying in pair and dedicated to cloud observation. Following a successful “A” phase consisting in technical trade-offs, HEMERIA will now design and deliver both satellites, each of them implementing a set of 5 instruments. Among them, 2 cloud imagers, one per satellite, by doing a sequence of simultaneous images of the same cloud will enable CNES and research laboratories to analyse 3D cloud expansion by using stereoscopy technique. The launch is scheduled for early 2027. The project involves about 25 people within HEMERIA. It strengthens the commercial success of our portfolio of smallsat generic platforms and our know-how in Earth Observation. HEMERIA thanks CNES for their trust and their support through this new project. 📷 : © CNES/MALIGNE Frédéric, 2024
