We already wrote that the Russian startup StartRocket, which Vlad Sitnikov leads, intends to launch in the coming years space advertising. Despite criticism from all sides, StartRocke does not intend to abandon its innovative idea, moreover, I have already received my first order.

Vlad Sitnikov himself is confident that working in this direction so far is only possible with major global brands, since such advertising is very costly for them and, of course, dear to the advertiser, and not everyone can pay for it even a respectable company. For example, a Pepsi ad should appear already in 2021, and tentatively it will cost more than 20 thousand dollars for 8 hours of display.
Now StartRock faces a very serious task: to launch into a low orbit a whole flotilla of miniature satellites with mirrored sails that are in the form of stars in the night sky and will collect the necessary advertising, for example, in the form of some logos, inscriptions or simple drawings. How the adrenaline drink ad will look Rush, has not yet been decided – it’s too early to think about it, the main task in the moment is completely different.
As Vlad Sitnikov told reporters, modeling such space advertising with helium balloons launched on similar orbital heights, was successful. Therefore at present time, the company is faced with the task of implementing the plan already with using cubsats – mini-satellites.
Apparently, not only themselves believe in the success of this business. organizers of space advertising, but also the most serious world advertisers …
