We're partnering with @Google to build & launch sats for their new Project Suncatcher! ☀️🛰️ This bold moonshot will test their TPUs in space as an experiment to harness the 24/7, unfiltered sun for power, and cold background of space for cooling, towards a future compute-in-space architecture. Ultimately this is about taking power intensive infrastructure off Earth, into space. At @planet, we love taking on audacious projects, in line with our purpose: to use space to help life on Earth. We're honoured @Google selected us for this exciting new mission!
🌍 This #ZeroEmissionsDay, we’re looking up. With support from Bloomberg Philanthropies, @carbonmapper and @planet launched the Tanager-1 satellite to track methane super-emitters worldwide. This technology is helping us see what’s been invisible for too long, and giving leaders the data they need to act against one of the most powerful drivers of climate change: 🔥 Methane traps 80x more heat than CO₂ 🌡️ Responsible for nearly a third of global warming 🛰️ Now, we can track it—and stop it. Learn more about this breakthrough and its impact on our planet.
BIG NEWS!🚀 @NATO is boosting global security with cutting-edge satellite surveillance! We're rapidly adopting @Planet's Broad Area Monitoring via SINBAD. This powerful tech provides: ☑️Persistent space-based surveillance ☑️Enhanced early warnings & maritime awareness ☑️Monitoring ceasefires & int'l law violations Maintaining our technological edge is key for collective defence & real-time situational awareness for our warfighters! #WeAreNATO
