ICEYE

Launch success! ICEYE has established communication with four new 25 cm resolution satellites, and is proud to introduce its new Generation 4 satellite (“Gen4”). ICEYE's Gen4 satellite provides the best SAR image quality available and marks a significant breakthrough in SAR satellite technology and in the industry. This groundbreaking technology advancement builds on ICEYE’s space heritage and doubles both the size of the SAR antenna and radiated SAR power. This enables Gen4 satellites to more than double the imaging area, ranging from 150 km to 400 km swath width. The images contain 30% greater information density. The improvements also include advanced orbit control for target imaging, and more imaging capacity for congested areas in a single satellite pass. This new generation will empower customers with enhanced situational awareness, faster decision-making capabilities, and improved mission outcomes. Detection and classification of vessels, vehicles, or aircraft will be much easier, which is key in demanding defense and intelligence environments. ICEYE will release further details about the full suite of Generation 4 technology improvements and customer applications in the coming weeks.

ICEYE was honored to host His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed, UAE’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, at our Finnish headquarters last Friday. This visit marks an important milestone in celebrating the 50th anniversary of the UAE’s and Finland’s diplomatic ties, and reflects the deepening partnership between ICEYE, the UAE and Space42. Four members of the Space42 team, who are currently in Finland working side by side with the ICEYE team, joined the visit. This initiative is a key part of the plan to develop Emirati talent and contribute to the fast-growing space industry in the UAE. Together, we are committed to building sovereign UAE capabilities in satellite technology - creating high-tech jobs, training Emirati talent, and supporting the UAE’s vision for a strong and innovative space economy. Thank you, Your Highness, for your trust in ICEYE and for inspiring us to go further, together. ICEYE Space42 Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Separation confirmed! All four ICEYE SAR satellites have successfully separated from the Falcon 9 rocket. Congratulations to the ICEYE Team and thank you to Exolaunch and SpaceX for another ride to orbit! Video: SpaceX

Only 30 min to go until ICEYE’s second launch of 2025! Join us in watching SpaceX's live stream here: https://hubs.li/Q03bT4Pp0. 📸 Dwell Fine image of Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, the launch site for today’s mission.

ICEYE is launching additional SAR satellites aboard SpaceX's Transporter-13 mission on Friday, March 14 at 23:39 PDT / Saturday, March 15 at 06:39 UTC. This launch will further expand our global constellation and enhance our industry-leading radar imaging capabilities. Thank you to the Exolaunch team for their continued support in making this mission possible. Stay tuned for updates as we approach liftoff 🚀 Photos: SpaceX

The electromagnetic field of the X-band pulses transmitted by ICEYE SAR satellite antennae goes up and down 9.6 billion times every second. But the signal that returns to the antenna does not consist of multiple ‘ups’ and ‘downs’. It is merely a fraction of a wavelength. This fraction is what we call the phase information of the echo. When you combine phase information with persistent monitoring, you can track day-to-day changes over weeks, months, and even years. Learn how phase information - that magical property of SAR - can be harnessed to detect subtle changes on the ground: https://hubs.li/Q03bJ_s80
