Engineering the Future of Orbit: Fast. Flexible. Resilient.
A next-generation smallsat platform for weather prediction, Earth sensing, and custom sensor delivery to orbit in weeks, not years.
A New Kind of Space Company
Weatherwave is replacing slow, one-off satellite programs with a living orbital platform. We build small, coordinated spacecraft in a lean U.S. production line, and launch them frequently. Capability grows as we rapidly develop and integrate new technologies.
Not just a factory. Not just a satellite. Not just today's mission. A carefully crafted system built to evolve as fast as the world demands.
A New Kind of Spacecraft: Flocks
We are building a constellation of small spacecraft that will provide weather sensing and Earth imaging rivaling billion dollar satellites at a tiny fraction of the cost.
We can do this because we are rethinking what a spacecraft actually is. Instead of one large, expensive satellite, we divide the sensing and observing work across a coordinated cluster of smaller, less expensive spacecraft. By flying them as a team and fusing their data with advanced algorithms, we turn the cluster into something more capable than a single monolithic system.
Traditional Satellites
- Large, expensive, single spacecraft
- Development cycles measured in many years
- Single point of failure for the mission
- Long revisit times over areas of interest
- Very difficult to upgrade once launched
Weatherwave Flocks
- Many coordinated smallsats acting as one
- Low cost, repeatable design on a U.S. production line
- Frequent revisit where it matters most
- Resilient to the loss of individual satellites
- Continuous capability refresh with each new flock
- Multi-angle sensing and fused data streams
Four Pillars of Success
Weatherwave is built around four principles that turn a smallsat constellation into an evolving orbital capability:
Coordinated Sensing
Weatherwave flocks measure as a team, not as isolated cameras. Multiple smallsats observe the same scene from different angles and with different instruments, which allows sensor fusion and more reliable environmental intelligence than single sensor systems can provide.
Persistent High-Cadence Coverage
Instead of waiting hours for a single satellite pass, Weatherwave is designed to refresh priority regions in minutes. Constellation geometry and coordinated tasking provide the temporal density needed for fast moving weather, environmental events, and time critical operations.
Resilience Through Replication
A distributed constellation with many similar spacecraft avoids single points of failure. Individual satellites can be lost, replaced, or upgraded without sacrificing mission performance, so critical coverage continues even when hardware is taken offline.
Continuous Improvement
Weatherwave treats the constellation as a continuously improving product. A lean, U.S. based production line allows new sensors, design refinements, and software upgrades to be flown regularly, so capability grows over time instead of remaining frozen for a decade.
Three Sets of Customers
Weatherwave is built around building systems that provide continuously improving data products to three sets of customers:
Climate & Weather Agencies
High-frequency observations for weather, storms, soil moisture, wind, atmospheric behavior, and emergency prediction.
National Security Agencies
The Flock architecture provides near real-time imaging and RF sensing to address Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) needs.
Commercial Partners
Continuous Earth intelligence for companies that serve agriculture, insurance, maritime, energy, or logistics.
