Sidus Space LizzieSat™-3 to Launch March 14, 2025, with Next Generation AI-Driven Space-to-Space Data Relay

This mission marks the third launch in 12 months, enhancing Sidus Space’s AI-powered data solutions

VANDENBERG SPACE FORCE BASE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Liftoff of the Sidus Space (NASDAQ: SIDU) (the “Company” or “Sidus”), an innovative, agile space mission enabler, LizzieSat™-3 is targeted for a launch window that opens today, March 14, 2024 at 11:39 PM PDT. The satellite will launch as part of the Transporter-13 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Space Launch Complex 4 East at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Live mission updates will be available on X (formerly Twitter) @SpaceX.

LizzieSat™-3 is the latest addition to Sidus Space’s growing constellation, designed to deliver near real-time, AI-powered intelligence from Low Earth Orbit (LEO). Equipped with multiple state-of-the-art sensors and technologies, including advanced cameras and radio frequency (RF) sensors, the satellite will leverage Sidus’ proprietary Orlaith AI Platform™ to process data directly on orbit, providing rapid asset detection, identification and classification.

Unlike traditional satellite intelligence systems that rely on post-mission data processing, LizzieSat™-3 enables near real-time insights through onboard AI processing. With high revisit rates, low-latency data transmission and automated decision-making capabilities, this launch marks a significant step in advancing AI-driven space solutions.
