Sidus Space, Inc. (NASDAQ: SIDU) (the “Company” or “Sidus”), a
multi-faceted Space and Data-as-a-Service satellite company, today
announced it received multiple signals from its LizzieSat™
satellite after launch and deployment to low Earth orbit as part of
SpaceX’s Transporter-10 Rideshare mission on March 4, 2024 from
Space Launch Complex 4 East at Vandenberg Space Force Base in
California.
A replay of the mission can be viewed HERE with the deploy of
LizzieSat™ shown at approximately 1 hour and 18 minutes after
launch.
The Sidus mission and launch team received multiple signals on
its FCC approved prime radio frequency and continues to monitor
communications with the satellite from its operations center in
Merritt Island, Florida. The LizzieSat™ satellite, approximately
the size of a mini-refrigerator, is considered a microsatellite
with a weight of 275 pounds and is able to support multiple
missions and customers from its single platform.
"After a successful launch and deployment, we are very excited
to report that during the launch and early operations (LEOP) stage,
we received signals from LizzieSat™," said Carol Craig, CEO at
Sidus Space. "This milestone marks the beginning of Sidus’ new era

innovative and advanced technologies, a vertically integrated
manufacturing facility, and a robust spacecraft supply chain. It’s
exciting to show proof of this capability for government and
commercial customers alike.”
Two more LizzieSat™ satellites are expected to launch from Cape
Canaveral Space Force Station later this year and will provide
tailored intelligence solutions for industries such as defense,
agriculture, maritime, and oil and gas.
