GalaxEye Partners with SpaceX for 2024 Earth Observation Satellite Launch

Indian spacetech startup GalaxEye has teamed up with SpaceX to launch its first multi-sensor Earth observation satellite, Drishti, in 2024. The satellite will use Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Optical/Multispectral Imaging (MSI) to capture high-resolution images in all weather conditions. This marks the beginning of a five-satellite constellation, aiming to offer daily revisits and sub-1 meter resolution by 2025. The collaboration highlights India's growing presence in the global spacetech industry, aligning with the “Make in India for the World” initiative​.
