Internet of things (IoT) start-up Fleet Space Technologies has revealed launch plans for its first two low-earth orbit nano-satellites, Centauri I and II, later this year. Centauri I – which weighs less than 10kg, and is roughly the size of a shoebox – will be sent to space aboard an Indian Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle by the Indian Space Research Organisation and its commercial arm Antrix, under contract with rocket payload rideshare firm Spaceflight. The satellites will be launched from the International Space Station (ISS) in late 2018 or early 2019, with a third satellite to follow after that.
