BlackSky Successfully Completes Commissioning for First Gen-3 Satellite and Prepares to Ship Second Unit for Expected Launch in Q2<\/b><\/p>\n

Gen-3 exceeding expectations for tasking-to-delivery performance amid positive customer demand on early very high-resolution 35-centimeter imagery and AI-driven analytics samples<\/i><\/p>\n

HERNDON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nBlackSky Technology Inc. (NYSE: BKSY<\/a>) has successfully completed commissioning its first Gen-3 satellite. The first satellite continues to exceed expectations for tasking-to-delivery performance amid positive customer feedback on early very high-resolution 35-centimeter imagery and AI-driven analytics samples.\n<\/p>\n

A BlackSky Gen-3 satellite image with AI-enabled analytics highlighting various-sized military planes and helicopters in Yelizovo, Russia, collected April 21, 2025. BlackSky\u2019s advanced, proprietary automated detection and identification algorithms transform very high-resolution Gen-3 imagery into actionable insights at machine speed and scale over strategic and tactical objects of interest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n\u201cBlackSky has demonstrated incredible, industry-leading speed for launch to on-orbit operations, completing commissioning for our first Gen-3 satellite a full month ahead of schedule,\u201d said Brian O\u2019Toole, BlackSky CEO. \u201cThis pace of performance is a testament to our team\u2019s experience, quality and rigor of our design, production and test practices, giving BlackSky a distinct advantage for scaling this service quickly and reliably for our customers.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe regular cadence of Gen-3 launches will produce a robust combination of capacity and low-latency, high-revisit capabilities to support near-term, early access customers and long-term demand for real-time space-based dynamic monitoring services,\u201d said O\u2019Toole.\n<\/p>\n

\nSatellite commissioning processes begin immediately after deployment from a launch vehicle and typically includes initial tracking, making first contact and the sequential activation of critical subsystems. Follow-on activities include calibrating payloads, sensors, communications and control systems, and optimizing automated operations across the entire constellation-to-ground architecture. During the Gen-3 commissioning process, BlackSky\u2019s first Gen-3 satellite quickly produced imagery within five days and AI-enabled analytics within three weeks of launch.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cBlackSky has received resounding positive customer response to early very high-resolution 35-centimeter imagery samples. The crispness and detail have enhanced the utility of these data products by giving users the ability to make observations often accomplished with higher resolution systems. In many instances analysts were able to discern details like sunroofs on top of automobiles or individual people and their shadows. This incredible amount of detail, combined with AI-enabled analytics makes available an expansive new set of mission solutions and reduces the speed of analyses over large volumes of imagery from days to minutes,\u201d said O\u2019Toole.\n<\/p>\n

\nBlackSky has made final preparations to send its second Gen-3 unit to Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in Mahia, New Zealand, in anticipation of launch in Q2. The Gen-3 launch schedule is proceeding as planned as the company prepares to integrate high-cadence, very high-resolution 35-centimeter imagery into customers\u2019 daily workflows later this year.\n<\/p>\n
