SAN FRANCISCO — BlackSky announced Aug. 11 a seven-figure, multiyear contract to provide an international customer with persistent space-based monitoring and assured and on-demand satellite tasking. Prior to the award, BlackSky conducted a pilot with the unnamed international customer. “BlackSky continues to drive recurring, high-margin revenue through key international subscription deals with our foundational Gen-2 dynamic monitoring constellation and ever-expanding best-in-class 35-centimeter class Gen-3 constellation,” BlackSky CEO Brian O’Toole said in a statement. Under the latest contract, the international customer will view Gen-3 and Gen-2 imagery through Spectra, BlackSky’s tasking and analytics platform for sustained monitoring of locations. Revenues from BlackSky’s international customers grew 200% in the second quarter, compared with the second quarter of 2025.
