Bengaluru-based space technology startup GalaxEye is set to launch Mission Drishti, India’s largest privately built commercial satellite, in the first quarter of 2026. Weighing approximately 160 kg, Drishti has secured a launch slot aboard a SpaceX mission, marking a significant milestone for India’s private space sector.
Mission Drishti features GalaxEye’s proprietary SyncFused OptoSAR technology, which combines Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and multispectral imaging sensors on a single platform.
This integration allows for high-resolution imagery with a spatial resolution of approximately 1.5 meters, irrespective of weather conditions or lighting.
This unique design enables continuous all-weather, high-resolution imagery, providing reliable geospatial data for applications such as disaster response, agriculture monitoring, infrastructure assessment, and defense.
Following the launch of Mission Drishti, GalaxEye plans to establish a satellite constellation comprising 8 to 12 satellites by 2029.
This ambitious project aims to provide near real-time Earth observation capabilities, enhancing applications in defense, agriculture, disaster management, and infrastructure monitoring.
The company envisions this expansion as a step towards reducing dependence on foreign satellite data and enhancing India’s position in the global space industry
