Munich, 13. January 2026 - Vyoma, a Germany-based company providing Space Domain Awareness (SDA) capabilities, has launched its pioneering surveillance satellite, Flamingo-1, on Sunday, January 11th, 2026 from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, USA.

The satellite was deployed to its operational Sun-synchronous orbit of approximately 500-km in altitude. This marks a significant achievement for the company, which patented the operational concept of an optimized SDA mission. Flamingo-1, equipped with an optical sensor for space-based space surveillance, is a gamechanger for Europe, strengthening SDA efforts directly from orbit. The advanced optical instrument will detect, track and characterize space objects, such as debris and other satellites.
