Pixxel Firefly Hyperspectral Satellite
Firefly is Pixxel's flagship hyperspectral imaging satellite constellation, featuring six commercially available hyperspectral satellites with the highest resolution to date.
Three Firefly satellites were successfully launched aboard SpaceX Transporter-12 at 11:09 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on January 14.
The highest resolution hyperspectral satellite
Pixxel's Firefly satellite constellation heralds a new chapter in Earth observation, combining high spatial resolution, spectral richness, and frequent global coverage.
Firefly satellites boast sensor resolution six times that of most existing hyperspectral satellites' 30-meter standard, enabling them to detect hidden patterns and anomalies with unparalleled detail and accuracy, making them the world's most advanced commercial hyperspectral imaging system. These satellites enable transformative applications, from monitoring deforestation and water pollution to optimizing resource management and ensuring operational safety in the mining, oil, and gas industries.
The first three Firefly satellites were launched in January 2025, with the remaining three scheduled for launch in the second quarter of 2025. Once fully deployed, the constellation will provide industry and governments with actionable advice on addressing global challenges.
