BRO-1 First Anniversary

It was launched on 20 august 2019 aboard Rocket Lab’s Electron rocket which took off from launch pad LC-1 (Launch-Complex 1) in the Mahia peninsula (New-Zealand) at 00:12 local time (UTC 12:12). The satellite was injected into its nominal circular orbit with an altitude of 550km and inclination of 45°, making UnseenLabs the first French privately-owned company to go to space.

BRO-1 has proven to be operational ever since, successfully gathering and delivering unique data for maritime surveillance.
