Anduril says Anduril-216 imaged the Moon in infrared

Anduril said on Nov. 10 that Anduril-216, an internally funded satellite launched on a SpaceX rideshare in July, has demonstrated a long-wave infrared sensor intended to track spacecraft during eclipse. The satellite flies about 590 km up, and the image Anduril released shows the Moon above Earth's horizon. Apex built the bus, and Anduril said it is focused on selling space-domain-awareness data rather than the satellite.
