STORK nanosatellite platform

SatRev's medium-resolution Earth observation nanosatellite platform. Two STORK satellites reached orbit on a Virgin Orbit launch in 2021.

Why it matters

Cheap imaging cubesats let smaller countries and companies get their own Earth data and space programs started.

How the technology works

STORK is a cubesat-class imaging platform. SatRev also developed ScopeSat, a deployable telescope with onboard processing.

Two SatRev satellites flew on Virgin Orbit's Tubular Bells: Part One mission in 2021.
