·4 min read

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., May 30, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sidus Space, Inc. (NASDAQ: SIDU) (the "Company" or "Sidus"), a multi-faceted Space and Data-as-a-Service satellite company, is pleased to announce that its high-performance artificial intelligence (AI) delivery platform, FeatherEdge, successfully transmitted data back down to Earth for the first time on May 24, 2024.

The LizzieSat-1 mission demonstrated FeatherEdge’s ability to upload new algorithms post-launch, run a machine vision algorithm on the hardware accelerator capable of processing data 300 times faster than a CPU, and downlink health and status data to Sidus Mission Control Center in Merritt Island, FL. The Google-powered AI processor sets the groundwork for substantial upgrades on future launches, which is expected to include NVIDIA-powered AI accelerators in early 2025, resulting in the highest performance edge computing capability on orbit.

This milestone marks the beginning of customized rapid intelligence delivery missions for industry, academia, and government customers. This capability will enable onboarding of new customers and improve and adapt to their mission needs, throughout each LizzieSat’s operational life. All LizzieSat satellites are equipped with the FeatherEdge platform, providing the building blocks for datacenter-scale computing on orbit.
