“The satellite, brokered and integrated via Nanoracks, separated from Falcon 9, 68 min after liftoff. Hugo is expected to enter commercial service within a few weeks. Hugo is the result of GHGSat’s first collaboration with ABB, the engineering firm which manufactured the payload. This was a historical payload launching 143 spacecrafts to orbit, marking the most spacecrafts deployed on a single mission. Hugo made first contact 20 minutes after separation in space.”
GHGSat, the global leader in high-resolution greenhouse gas monitoring from space, has successfully completed the launch of its third satellite, GHGSat-C2, Hugo, which launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station this week.
