NOAA and Cowboy Space to Test AI Processing Aboard 2027 Satellite
NOAA’s NESDIS and Cowboy Space Corporation will test in-orbit AI processing under a two-year cooperative research and development agreement, with the Reason-2 launch planned for 2027. The effort is not an open solicitation, but it signals NOAA’s interest in commercial satellite capabilities and complements existing environmental-monitoring contracting paths.
