Capella Space, an American space tech company with data and satellite solutions for government and commercial applications announced the formation of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Capella Federal.
The new entity enables the company to further support its U.S. government and defense agency customers by providing expanded access to its Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery with increased security and continued on-demand reliability.
Capella Space has worked closely with the public sector since its inception, having previously signed contracts with the National Reconnaissance Office, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, U.S. Space Force and others. Capella Federal enables the company to further expand its work with U.S. government customers and opens the door to new partnership opportunities.
Capella Federal tailors the delivery of SAR imagery specifically to meet the heightened security and facility clearance needs of its U.S. government, defense, and intelligence customers at a larger scale. With Capella’s technology, government agencies can gather data and images of Earth in any weather, any time of day or night. The increased specialized access allows them to continue to have eyes on the ground, informing mission-critical decisions around national security and enabling greater global transparency.
“Since the inception of Capella Space, and especially in the wake of the ongoing Ukraine crisis, we’ve seen significant demand from our U.S. government customers to utilize Capella’s SAR capabilities,” said Payam Banazadeh, Capella Space CEO & Founder. “Capella Federal will allow for that continued support and will provide some of our most valued customers with the necessary tools to make critical, potentially life-saving decisions.”
