BlackSky Technology Inc. successfully completed commissioning its first Gen-3 satellite, a full month ahead of schedule. The satellite continues to exceed expectations for tasking-to-delivery performance, receiving positive customer feedback on early very high-resolution 35-centimeter imagery and AI-driven analytics samples.
CEO Brian O’Toole highlighted BlackSky's industry-leading speed for launch to on-orbit operations, attributing it to the team's experience and the quality of design, production, and test practices. This pace provides BlackSky a distinct advantage for scaling its services quickly and reliably.
BlackSky has made final preparations to send its second Gen-3 unit to Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand, in anticipation of a Q2 launch. The Gen-3 launch schedule is proceeding as planned, with the company preparing to integrate high-cadence, very high-resolution imagery into customers’ daily workflows later this year.
