The Balkan Constellation is a satellite constellation of multispectral Earth observation satellites developed by the Bulgarian company EnduroSat with the support of the European Space Agency (ESA). The constellation focuses on orbital monitoring of the environment, land use, agriculture, forests, coasts, and infrastructure across the Balkans and the EU. In 2023, the Balkan Constellation was selected as one of the Copernicus Contributing Missions (CCMs) providing data to the EU's Copernicus Programme. The first satellite of the constellation, Balkan-1, was launched in January 2025. +Balkan Constellation satellitesNameCOSPAR IDSatellite busLaunch dateLaunch vehicleFlightRefBalkan-12025-009C16U CubeSat14 January 2025Falcon 9Transporter-12Balkan-22026-100H6U CubeSat3 May 2026Falcon 9CAS500-2 rideshare missionBalkan-32026-156ALCubeSat7 July 2026Falcon 9Transporter-17
