- Ready for launch. The first production-class satellite in our Pulsar constellation is headed for low Earth orbit this June after completing manufacturing from our partners at @aerospacelab_
- We are thrilled to announce our $19m Series A funding led by @Ventures_Future and @seraphim_space! This milestone marks a significant step in the commercialization of space-based navigation. xonaspace.com/xonaraises19ms…
- Our first LEO satellite navigation mission is a go with funding co-led by @SeraphimCapital and @MaCVentureCap, and participation including @Toyota_Ventures and @1517fund. Excited to be at @ionavigation's #iongnss conference to celebrate!
- Liftoff! Huginn, our first in-space demo mission, has safely made it to orbit. This is an exciting and memorable moment for our team.SpaceX has confirmed 28 of 39 spacecraft separation events on the Falcon 9 rocket’s upper stage. The small satellites deployed so far include tech demo & Earth observation payloads for NASA, the Missile Defense Agency, Spire Global, GHGSat, and GeoOptics. youtube.com/watch?v=iJEcc1…
00:00 - Pulsar is online. Last week, Xona mission teams began broadcasting live-sky navigation signals from Pulsar-0 in Low Earth Orbit following a complete series of payload health and safety checks. Over the coming weeks, we’ll continue to scale signal performance, operations, and
- Xona is excited to launch our first in-space demo mission today on SpaceX Transporter 5! Huginn is on the pad and ready to go! 🚀 @SpaceflightInc
- Xona is thrilled to announce we have successfully passed critical environmental testing and we're officially ready for launch! We are so proud of our team for everything we've accomplished in a short time.
- Xona announces its total funding has exceeded $25M after recent investment from First Spark Ventures and @LockheedMartin Ventures. This capital will accelerate the development of the first independent precision navigation service from low Earth orbit.
- The next generation of navigational intelligence is in orbit! Pulsar-0 is ready to prove what’s possible when precision, security, and resilience are reimagined for today’s world. Explore what it is built to demonstrate and why it matters: xonaspace.com/news/launching…
00:00 - Timing is everything. We’ve signed @Hoptroff, @fibrolan, and @TimebeatApp as our earliest customers—bringing Pulsar’s secure, resilient, and ultra-precise timing signals to the systems that keep the modern world running. From transit systems to trading floors and energy grids,
- Another big step today at Xona! After a successful launch and deployment last week, today we announce our collaboration with @HexagonAP | @novatelinc as we develop precision navigation technology for our commercial LEO PNT constellation!We're excited to announce we've signed an MoU with @XonaSpace to collaborate in developing assured positioning, navigation and timing (#APNT) capabilities with their new Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite that launched last week.
