Sensor

The MultiScape50 is a 1U CubeSat pushbroom multispectral imager developed by Simera Sense, part of the xScape50 payload family.

The sensor uses a CMOS global shutter and covers 450-900 nm across 8 spectral channels: 1 panchromatic band and 7 VNIR bands. Pixel size is 5.5 um across 4096 pixels, delivering 30 m GSD at 500 km altitude and a 120 km swath at 12-bit depth. Each band supports 1-to-32 stage digital time-delay integration (TDI).[1]

A Satsearch listing for the CIS variant cites 7 VNIR bands; the Simera product page lists 8 total channels (PAN + 7 VNIR) -- these describe the same instrument from different counting conventions and are not in conflict. The Simera cameras overview page describes MultiScape50 as a 32-band VNIR instrument, which is inconsistent with the individual product page; the product page is treated as tier-1 authoritative.[1]

Per-band centre wavelengths for the 7 VNIR channels and PAN band are not specified on the product page as of May 2026. Flight heritage and named missions carrying MultiScape50 have not been confirmed in public sources.
