Kanopus also known as Canopus, is a series of Russian Earth Observation satellite developed and operated by Roscosmos, primarily through the Research and Production Corporation VNIIEM. The program is designed for real-time monitoring of natural and man-made disasters, environmental changes, agriculture, cartography, and resource management. The Kanopus satellites operate in Sun-synchronous orbits at approximately 500–510 km altitude, offering high-resolution imaging and frequent revisits. The program emphasizes cost-effective, modular designs using the Kanopus bus platform, with contributions from international partners such as Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL) of the United Kingdom for avionics and software.
