In January 2023, Israel launched the EROS-C3 (Earth Resources Observation Satellite), one of the most advanced observation satellites globally, into orbit around Earth. This USD 186 million satellite is already transmitting high-resolution images to its ground station. These images will be utilized for gathering intelligence pertinent to defense objectives while ensuring complete confidentiality and data security. The satellite was launched into orbit using SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket, a reusable launch vehicle known for its capability to transport both individuals and payloads into space, subsequently returning to Earth.
