Unicorn-2

Unicorn-2’s high-resolution nighttime light data will provide greater granularity for understanding Earth-based phenomena.

The partnership between New Light Technologies and Alba Orbital will develop algorithms to process Unicorn-2 data and platforms to visualize the data.

Unicorn-2 carries an optical night-time imaging payload designed to monitor light pollution globally.
