Beginning of Commercial phase: Deployment of three satellites by Spire

SCV Galactic Georgius has successfully deployed three satellites manufactured by Spire. Following an orbit raising maneuver from its initial injection orbit, the OTV released the spacecraft into their designated operational trajectories: one CubeSat from the LEMUR constellation and two from Lacuna’s constellation.

The LEMUR satellites leverage advanced Radio Occultation (RO) and Automatic Identification System (AIS) to enhance global weather monitoring and commercial intelligence services, while the Lacuna spacecraft carry Lacuna Space’s latest generation IoT payloads, designed to deliver low-cost, reliable global connections to sensors and mobile equipment in remote locations, supporting the expansion of low power, worldwide IoT connectivity.
