Yahsat, in collaboration with Bayanat and ICEYE, is set to make a significant stride in advancing the UAE’s Space Strategy 2030 with the upcoming launch of the country’s first Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite into Low Earth Orbit (LEO). This groundbreaking satellite will provide unparalleled day-and-night imaging capabilities, independent of weather conditions, and offer the ability to capture detailed images of both expansive geographical areas and smaller, precise features. This initiative is poised to deliver immense benefits to global customers, enhancing remote sensing and geospatial applications across various industries.

ICEYE, renowned for its SAR technology, is preparing for another satellite launch on August 16, 2024, at 18:20 UTC. The launch, facilitated by SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket through Exolaunch, will see multiple satellites entering orbit, further expanding ICEYE’s world-leading SAR constellation. Notably, this launch will include the first ICEYE satellite mission dedicated to Bayanat and Yahsat, marking a significant milestone in their partnership and contributing to the growth of advanced satellite capabilities in the region.
