SFL Missions Announces Launch and Successful Deployment of Two GHGSat Greenhouse Gas Monitoring Microsatellites

SFL Missions developed the satellites on a low-cost, high-performance 15-kg NEMO bus, the same used to build the first nine GHGSat spacecraft.

GHGSat-C12 and -C13 launched on June 23 from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, aboard the SpaceX Transporter 14 ride-share mission. Ground control has established communications with both spacecraft.

“SFL Missions is pleased that GHGSat has once again placed trust in us to support development of its industry-leading commercial greenhouse gas monitoring constellation,” said SFL Missions Director Dr. Robert E. Zee. “We take pride in developing barrier-breaking, budget-aggressive small satellite missions for commercial, government, and academic customers worldwide.”
