FireSat 0 (MuSat 4) [Muon Space]
The FireSat 0 (MuSat-4) satellite is the FireSat Protoflight satellite to pave the way for the deployment of the FireSat constellation. This initiative aims to transform global wildfire detection, monitoring, and response.
Designed and built by Muon Space, including its state-of-the-art six-channel multispectral infrared (IR) instrument, FireSat showcases the company's expertise in delivering fully integrated, mission-tailored satellite systems from concept to operation. It is built on Muon's new Halo platform.
Launched aboard SpaceX's Transporter 13 rideshare mission on March 14 2025 from Vandenberg Space Force Base, Muon Space has successfully established communications with the satellite and confirmed its operational health.
