So @ladyofsteele β€˜s poster holds up nicely after a few years. A reason to opt for cloth posters.

Even though we have satellites flying in space today, Loft does not have a satellite operations team. Instead, we have SatDevOps, a software-centric approach to satellite operations at scale. πŸ›°οΈπŸ§΅ Read the blog here: loftorbital.com/post/satdevo…

Shoutout to @750words for helping me establish a writing discipline πŸ™ most of the time I journal, but two days ago, I wrote and submitted a #shortstory from my 750words session. I also love that it extracts sentiment. New favorite writing resource!

Celebrating #PrideMonth with our latest colorized sub-aperture image, or "Rainbow #SAR," of #NewYork where you can find @StonewallNPS. Our 30-sec, long dwell spotlight allows us to map motion as colors to produce imagery just as colorful as our amazing team. #InclusionMatters

How long does it take Capella to go from launch to first light? 4 days, 23 hrs and 10 mins! We’re excited to share recent images from our #SAR satellites fully commissioned in low-Earth orbit. The Eye of the Sahara, or Richat Structure, a circular geological feature in Africa.

And now...(drumroll)...the fully deployed reflector! This 3.5 m diameter structure made from knitted material is the eyes and lens of the radar and allows the satellite to capture images of what’s happening on Earth. πŸ˜πŸ’›πŸ›°οΈ #SAR #Satellite #StrongerTogether #Earth

Congrats to the whole team!
A #selfie from space with a view! First phase of satellite ops underway on our newly launched satellites. Boom deployment complete. This 3m arm is the length of a minivan and sets the stage for reflector deployment. More to come! #SAR #Satellite #Space #Earth

Lift-off! Capella has two new #SAR satellites in low-Earth orbit. We have made contact with both satellites and are moving into checkout and commissioning.
Rocket Lab’s Electron rocket lifted off from Wallops March 16 at 6:39 p.m. E DT carrying two satellites to low-Earth orbit for Capella Space. Through launches like this, Wallops continues our support of enabling commercial launches from our facility. go.nasa.gov/3JO7OlL
