Muon Space Raises $250m Round Backed by Google and Salesforce
Muon Space secured $250m in funding backed by Google and Salesforce to expand FireSat, a wildfire detection constellation. Muon built and launched the first operational satellites in July as part of a wildfire monitoring effort with the Earth Fire Alliance and Google Research. The company has also shifted toward defense-focused satellite sensing, including work on the Víndler constellation for Sierra Space.
