Today Silas had the opportunity to interview Dan Katz, the Co-Founder and CEO of Orbital Sidekick, where they are building, and launching Hyperspectral Satellites to help catch methane leaks in pipelines, and hopefully one day, identify geographies that have critical minerals underneath the surface.
He started in the aerospace industry building satellites for other organizations. In the wake of the frothy space exploration market Dan and his colleague believed they could also build a company in this space. This paired with their realization that the ocean was boiling, led them to focus on catching methane leaks.
He has a pretty interesting story and method of building the company. I'm sure you'll enjoy it! 🌎
