Oneliner	Lunasonde makes the underground world visible, fundamentally transforming our understanding of the planet we live on. We're pioneering subsurface imaging while providing a sustainable approach to resource exploration.
Description	Lunasonde’s ability to look 15,000x deeper than current satellites and sensors is the next frontier in resource exploration. Our small satellite can locate groundwater, mineral deposits, and other geological resources up to 2 kilometers underground. Our data is collected in 3 minutes and provides a true 3D map of the earth's subsurface.
Notes	We are an early-stage company establishing a constellation of CubeSats that will produce maps of underground resources up to 2km below Earth’s surface.
