The EOS SAT-1 satellite of the EOS Data Analytics company (part of the Noosphere Ventures of Ukrainian businessman Maks Polyakov) has been put into orbit. This is the first satellite of the world's first agro-oriented constellation from the EOS Data Analytics company engaged in remote sensing of the Earth.

The PolyITAN-HP-30 nanosatellite, created for the 30th anniversary of Ukraine's independence, was also put into orbit, which will enable scientists of the Kyiv Polytechnic Institute named after Igor Sikorsky to obtain the operating characteristics of heat pipes in microgravity conditions and to identify possible omissions and advantages in the process of further creation of heat pipes for various space vehicles.
