SpaceX reports on its website that the Transporter-15 mission is scheduled to launch on November 20 at 7:18 p.m. Polish time from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California (USA). It was previously announced that the launch would take place on Wednesday, November 19. SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket will carry, among others, Polish satellites into orbit. These include a satellite manufactured by the Polish-Finnish company ICEYE, a constellation of three PIAST satellites, and a nanosatellite from SatRev in Wrocław.
SatRev flies into space
The Wrocław-based company reports that preparations for the launch of the PW6U nanosatellite into orbit have been completed. The satellite has already been delivered to the launch site and has undergone all integration procedures prior to the Transporter-15 mission carried out by SpaceX.
“The delivery of PW6U to the launch base and its preparation for launch into orbit confirms that we have achieved maturity in our production and operational processes. Each subsequent mission strengthens our competence and ability to implement end-to-end satellite projects, which is the foundation for building sovereign space technologies.”
Dr. Daniel Więzik, President of the Management Board of SatRev S.A.
SatRev PW6U satellite built in Wrocław
PW6U was built in Wrocław. The company emphasizes that this is a very important project because it serves as a precursor, a kind of prototype and proof that SatRev can build small satellites in a repeatable and scalable manner (i.e., it can easily mass-produce them).
As part of the same mission, SpaceX, a leader in commercial payload delivery to orbit, will also launch the Polish satellites PIAST and ICEYE alongside PW6U.
PW6U nanosatellite key data
The PW6U nanosatellite is an advanced 6U-class unit equipped with a multispectral optical instrument capable of delivering 5.8 m resolution RGB and NIR images from an altitude of 500 km, and a real-time data processing module using AI while still in orbit.
All stages – from design, through production, software, mission control center development, to data acquisition and analysis – are carried out independently at SatRev.
The data acquired by PW6U, which will be delivered to customers, has a wide range of civilian applications, from agriculture and forestry to energy and infrastructure.
SatRev goes to NewConnect
SatRev is simultaneously preparing for its debut on the NewConnect market, and in recent weeks has become part of ORBITEO – an emerging technology holding company bringing together Polish companies from sectors including defense, space, UAV, and deep tech.
Where and who created SatRev?
In September 2025, we reported that Wrocław-based space industry startup SatRev had a major investor and new plans. January Ciszewski took control of SatRev and is developing a space ecosystem around it, connecting the space, AI, and defense industries.
SatRev specializes in the design, production, and operation of satellites, as well as the provision of data analysis solutions. Since 2018, the company has launched several nanosatellites up to 6U in size into orbit. SatRev designs, builds, and operates nanosatellites, and also develops ground infrastructure for communication and mission management, as well as analysis and commercialization of acquired data (including images) in various industries, from agriculture and ecology, through municipal management (SmartCity – its own product for advanced satellite image analysis using machine learning algorithms) to defense applications.
