In other words, we will be able to acquire high-quality data to understand changes and trends at specific locations in the Earth\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n<p>Following, we plan to launch a commercial prototype satellite, StriX-1 (Strix One), later this year. By 2023, we will have six satellites in total, bringing us closer to a planned constellation of 30 satellites that enables wide-area, high-frequency earth observation.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>StriX-\u03b2 performance table<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Frequency Band<\/td>\n<td>X Band<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Observation Mode<\/td>\n<td>StripMap<\/td>\n<td>Sliding SpotLight<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Resolution<\/td>\n<td>3m<\/td>\n<td>1m<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Swath<\/td>\n<td>30km<\/td>\n<td>10km<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Polarimetry<\/td>\n<td>VV<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Revisit Period<\/td>\n<td>Visit anywhere in the world every 12 hours (6 satellites \/ 2023)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u8cea\u91cf<\/td>\n<td>100kg class<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<ul>\n<li>Comments from CEO<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Dr. Motoyuki Arai, Synspective founder and CEO:<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIt is a great honor to collaborate with Rocket Lab again, which is an experienced launch service provider with the successful StriX-\u03b1 deployment to orbit. We very much appreciate their flexibility and speediness in accepting our requests on the satellite\u2019s orbit and launch period. Synspective has already begun operating its first satellite and providing solution services, and the StriX-\u03b2 is going to play an essential role in deepening satellite-operation know-how and enable us to expand our business operations.
