HEO

Positioning

HEO is an Australian company (Sydney) and the category creator of commercial non-Earth imaging (photographing satellites from other satellites), with seven first-generation camera missions and its Adler Mk2 GEO-hardened camera flying in 2026, plus >50 sensors accessible after a Planet SkySat integration (August 2026). It is the asset-light space-domain-awareness model (cameras in the right place, not big satellites), acquired Satellogic's NewSat-34 (Australia's first sovereign sub-meter imaging asset), and moved its NRO relationship to operational integration (a February 2026 CSO contract). Revenue is estimated at 10-100m (the NRO contract is small-dollar, seven-figure class).
