With this, Look Up achieves a technological feat, demonstrating its ability to rapidly deploy a global network of surveillance radars. SORASYS (Space Object Radar System) is a new-generation ground-based radar capable of detecting and tracking small objects, active and inactive satellites, rocket parts, and debris in low Earth orbit (up to 2,000 km), where more than 90% of space traffic is located.]]> https://spacewatch.global/2025/06/look-up-secures-e50-million-towards-deploying-space-surveillance-radar-network/ Mon, 16 Jun 2025 06:00:00 +0000 https://spacewatch.global/?p=65801 Look Up has completed a €50 million funding round combining equity, bank debt, and public grants with ETF Partners leading the round.
