On December 20th, the Vega C mission carrying Airbus’ Pléiades Neo satellites 5 and 6 was lost shortly after launch. While Airbus deals with the challenges and comes to terms with the loss, they continue to offer high-quality, 30-cm resolution imagery with their industry-leading Pléiades Neo 3 and 4 satellites. While we are saddened by this news, we’ll keep you up to date on future plans for the Airbus constellation as new developments arise.
