07 July 2026 year Fr. 07:12 (UTC) from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, USA with the help of the Falcon 9 Block 5" a cluster launch of a multi-purpose spacecraft of the "Transporter 17" mission was carried out.
Mission "Transporter 17" includes 81 KA – to cube, microsatellites and platforms for deploying spacecraft.
CAS500-4 is a new generation South Korean Earth remote sensing satellite, designed for broadband surveillance of agricultural land, forest resources and natural disaster monitoring. The device is the fourth satellite of the CAS500 series, which is implemented by Korea Aerospace Research Institute and Korea Aerospace Industries.
Pelican-11 is a second-generation technology demonstration satellite (Gen 2) of the Pelican family, intended for testing new technologies of remote sensing of the Earth before their implementation on serial satellites.
FireSat is a specialized satellite constellation, designed for early detection, monitoring and tracking forest and natural fires on a global scale. The project is implemented by the non-profit organization Earth Fire Alliance with the participation of the Muon Space company and with the technological support of Google Research.
ICEYE are small Earth remote sensing satellites, equipped with synthetic aperture radar equipment (SAR, Synthetic Aperture Radar). Their main purpose is to obtain highly detailed radar images of the Earth's surface around the clock and under any weather conditions, regardless of cloud cover, the rain, snow or lighting.
GRUS are Japanese optical microsatellites for remote sensing of the Earth, developed by Axelspace. They are part of the satellite group, designed for regular acquisition of high-quality images of the Earth's surface.
Flashpoint-1 is a technological demonstration satellite whose main purpose is flight testing of new space technologies and software, as well as checking the operation of individual components of the platform in the conditions of Earth orbit.
LEMUR-2 is a series of multipurpose nanosatellites in the 3U CubeSat format, developed by the American company Spire Global. They are part of one of the world's largest commercial orbital groups of remote sensing satellites.
ION SCV “Joyful Julia” — the platform for deploying satellites of the Italian company D-Orbit. It is designed to transport and deploy multiple small CubeSats into individual orbits.
