It has become part of Nasa's $476-million commercial smallsat data acquisition program.

This is the first deal by an Indian startup, after the sector was opened to private companies in 2020.

This contract period for the program runs through November 2028. Pixxel will provide Nasa, the US government and academic partners with hyperspectral earth observation data. This will further empower the administration's earth science research and application activities.
