The Fireflies take flight again!
Pixxel successfully launched three new Firefly satellites aboard the SpaceX NAOS Falcon 9 mission on Aug 26 (PDT)/ Aug 27 (IST) 2025, completing the first phase of its commercial constellation and moving closer to building a health monitor for the planet.
These satellites join the first three Fireflies that successfully launched on SpaceX’s Transporter-12 mission on January 14, 2025. Built for depth, frequency, and fidelity, the constellation has been steadily monitoring Earth, delivering rich spectral insights across environmental and industrial indicators.

Transforming Earth observation with
The Highest-Resolution Hyperspectral Satellites
Pixxel’s Firefly constellation brings together high spatial resolution, rich spectral depth, and global frequency to unlock deeper insights from space at scale.
With six times the spatial resolution of most existing systems, Fireflies capture patterns and changes that traditional satellites miss, across more than 135+ spectral bands. From tracking deforestation and water pollution to monitoring crop stress and industrial activity, the constellation brings clarity to complex challenges.
With six operational commercial satellites in orbit, the constellation offers daily global coverage and data to support stronger monitoring, better planning and faster response across sectors for industries and governments.
