Description Albedo is the first space company to commercialize the new orbit regime of VLEO (very low Earth orbit) and to provide a VLEO platform. VLEO transforms satellite capabilities by operating twice as close to Earth, enabling dramatic improvements in performance while reducing system costs.
Albedo’s first satellite Clarity-1 — launched in March 2025 and now operating in VLEO — exemplifies the disruptive potential of the company’s proprietary VLEO platform. Clarity-1 delivers imagery at a resolution previously exclusive to drones & aircraft or billion-dollar classified satellites, while showcasing a platform that can support a variety of mission types.
