Runner 1 [Terran Orbital]
Runner is a small optical earth observation satellite by ImageSat Int. (ISI) featuring a true color imaging and video capability for commercial and government intelligence customers.
The satellite, built by Tyvak, features a 35 cm telescope capable of full color imaging and video with a ground resolution of of 71 cm and a swath width of 5.6 km in the 400 nm to 670 nm spectral bands. It will operate from a 500 km sun-synchronous orbit as part of a high-revisit satellites constellation. The satellite is based on Terran Orbital’s advanced avionics platform and the ISI’s electro-optical mission system.
The first satellite, Runner 1 will be launched in June 2023. it will also serve the Chilean government in its national space development program, which was awarded to ISI following an extensive international tender process. The satellite, domestically called FASat Delta, is a key component of the Chilean national space program vision.
