About us

Umbra is an American space technology company built to push the limits of what’s possible. We’re redefining what can be done in and through space – expanding access, increasing persistence, and delivering a powerful information advantage to our customers. From the ground up in the U.S., we design, build, test, and operate advanced systems – from sensors to spacecraft – engineering novel solutions tailored to the missions that matter most. Our agile Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) constellation is the most capable system on the market — producing the highest-quality imaging data in any condition, at any time. Built for unmatched resilience, our system illuminates what others miss and empowers customers with persistent access, resilient performance, and proven results on orbit – not just on paper. Our commitment to First Principles engineering has fueled year-over-year growth since our market entry in 2021. And we are only just getting started. Umbra’s ecosystem today includes: - Remote Sensing = the data - Space Systems = the hardware - Mission Solutions = the platforms Together, these capabilities make Umbra the most effective partner in the market – delivering the flexibility, performance, and resilience your mission demands. By continuously designing, building, and operating our own systems, we’re constantly refining our technology, our products, and our craft. Our radar imagery is the direct result of our platform effectiveness – precision from orbit, powered by our integrated hardware and software. Because we’ve mastered the details, we can customize satellites quickly and reliably. Now, we’re offering others the same building blocks that more our missions possible. We know space. And we’re continuing to redefine it.

    Paris is calling. Umbra is headed to World Space Business Week 2025—where the future of space takes center stage. Here’s what to watch for: - Panels where our leaders Jason Mallare and Anjali R. will discuss how our custom-built systems are redefining what defense and intelligence missions can achieve. - Opportunities to connect with our team onsite. - New updates on our partnership with Reflex Aerospace. What began as a clear mission to make radar data more accessible, in less time, has grown into so much more. Umbra Mission Solutions designs resilient, mission-specific platforms, and our newest division, Space Systems, delivers the very components we use ourselves. From data to components to custom platforms, we provide flexibility and speed to meet any mission and any need. See you at #WSBW2025.

    Umbra’s global expansion continues ... We’re proud to announce a multi-year, multi-million dollar agreement with a new customer in Asia. This partnership will deliver high-volume, high-resolution SAR imagery to support critical missions across the region, day or night, through any weather, and in complex environments. “This contract demonstrates the growing demand for Umbra’s capabilities in Asia,” said Joe Morrison, VP and GM of Remote Sensing. “It’s the first of several customer onboardings we expect in the second half of the year.” Backed by our proprietary parabolic mesh reflector and full-stack engineering approach, we continue to expand our footprint and deliver clarity where others can't.
