Pixxel Space: Revolutionizing Earth Observation Founded in 2019 by Awais Ahmed and Kshitij Khandelwal, Pixxel is transforming earth observation with its hyperspectral satellites, which capture data at hundreds of wavelengths. This enables precise monitoring of environmental issues, from crop health to pollution. Pixxel’s data-as-a-service (DaaS) model allows businesses to subscribe to its satellite data through the Aurora platform, providing actionable insights for sectors like agriculture, energy, and defense. Pixxel’s recent $36 million Series B funding, with Google as a key investor, is accelerating its goal of launching six satellites by 2024 and expanding to 24 satellites by 2025and their major partnerships, like a 5-year contract with the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office (NRO).
