Capella SpaceCapella Space is now capable of producing high resolution radar images of the Earth’s surface, and the company, which has raised $100 million in venture capital, is ready to go to market. Over the next few weeks, the company made its satellite operational and has now released some of its first images. What look like high resolution, black and white photos at first glance are, in fact, high resolution radar images. “Capella’s demonstration of very high resolution SAR imagery from a smallsat platform is an important milestone for Capella from both a technical and fundraising perspective,” he says. “We made history with this launch as the first and only American commercial SAR company and we have a lot more history-making announcements coming soon.”
