It specializes in the design, build, launch, and management of small satellites.[3] Spire has successfully deployed more than 80 Earth observation CubeSats into low Earth orbit and maintains a ground station network across 35 locations around the world. The company has offices in San Francisco, Glasgow, Luxembourg, Singapore, and Boulder. HistorySpire was founded in 2012 by Peter Platzer, Joel Spark, and Jeroen Cappaert in San Francisco to create ArduSat, a crowd-funded satellite, which was launched on August 3, 2013.[4][5] Crowd funding in the amount of $106,330 was raised via Kickstarter.[6] The startup was incubated at Lemnos Labs[4] and investments totaling $1.5M were made in a seed round by Shasta Ventures, Emerge, [https://www.beamonte.com Beamonte Investments], Grishin Robotics, and Lemnos Labs.[1][7] On July 29, 2014, Spire announced an additional $25M Series A funding round led by RRE Ventures and backed by Emerge, Mitsui & Co. Global Investment, Qihoo, 360 Technology, and Moose Capital.[1][8][9] Sooner after the company opened its second office in Singapore. The company’s first three ArduSat satellites were named after a portmanteau of Arduino, the technology on which they were based, and Satellite.[5][10] In August 2014, it was announced that Ardusat was spun out of Spire and would focus on educational technology.[11] On June 30, 2015, the company announced a $40 Million Series B led by Promus Ventures with participation from Bessemer Venture Partners and Jump Capital.[12] In September 2015, Spire became the first CubeSat operator based in the US to launch from India.[13] That same year, Spire began operations in Glasgow and built a full-scale cleanroom with in-house testing facilities to begin rapid manufacture of the next-generation LEMUR-1 satellite. In January 2016, the company opened a new office in Boulder, Colorado and announced the addition of the former program manager of the COSMIC weather satellite constellation to build Spire's weather program.[14] On September 16, 2016 NOAA awarded a contract to Spire for a Commercial Weather Data Pilot ([https://www.space.commerce.gov/business-with-noaa/commercial-weather-data-pilot-cwdp/ CWDP]) using a technique known as GPS Radio Occultation. On November 15, 2017 the company announced a $70m Series C and opened its fifth office in Luxembourg.[15] On January 21, 2018, two Lemur-2 nanosatellites were part of the payload of a Rocket Lab Electron rocket, the first successful orbital-entry craft launched from a privately owned and operated spaceport (at Mahia Peninsula in New Zealand). On August 14, 2018 Spire selected Arianespace to carry satellites on The Vega Proof of Concept (POC) flight part of the Small Spacecraft Mission Service (SSMS). On September 17, 2018 NOAA awarded a follow up contract for [https://www.space.commerce.gov/business-with-noaa/commercial-weather-data-pilot-cwdp/ CWDP] round 2. On October 5, 2018 NASA chooses Spire to participate in a commercial earth observation data acquisition program to augment NASA's own datasets. SatellitesSpire satellites are built to conform to the CubeSat standard. The company uses minimally adapted consumer electronics to reduce cost.[16] The satellites are placed in low-Earth orbit and are scheduled to be retired and replaced every two years.[17][18] The Lemur-1 satellite was launched as a prototype for a constellation of 125 satellites.[19][20][21] Spire designs, builds, tests, and operates all its satellites in-house. The satellites are multi-sensor. Data types such as Automatic Identification System (AIS) service are used for tracking ships, and weather payloads measure temperature, pressure, and precipitation. AIS data is meant for use in illegal fishing, trade monitoring, maritime domain awareness, insurance, asset tracking, search and rescue, and piracy.[4] ADS-B sensors were launched in early 2018 to track aircraft.[22] Satellite list
