Notes	Pixxel raises seed round for hyperspectral satellites - SpaceNews. After six-month delay, start-up targets satellite launch in October. Dawn Aerospace announced it is providing satellite propulsion systems to hyperspectral Earth imaging company Pixxel. Indian hyperspectral imaging startup Pixxel has announced a partnership with mining company Rio Tinto, giving that company early access to data from satellites scheduled to launch early this year. First launch delayed a few weeks before the PSLV C51 launch due to software issues.
