Earendil-0

Earendil-1

The first demonstration satellite: a 142 kg spacecraft carrying an aluminized thin-film reflector roughly 18 meters on a side, folded into a container about the size of a microwave oven and deployed on orbit at 600 to 650 km. It is designed to steer a reflected beam onto a spot several kilometers wide for up to five minutes per pass, within about two hours of local sunset. Reflect's homepage still describes 2026 lighting as 0.1 lux (full-moon comparable); a peer-reviewed August 2026 paper calculates about 1.05 lux for an 18-meter prototype.

Sunlight on Demand service

The commercial service the constellation is meant to deliver: customers request light at a location and time through an app, and passing reflectors steer sunlight onto it. Reflect commits to keeping reflections controllable and avoidable, publishing satellite positions in advance and geofencing observatories out of the service map. Brightness and duration scale with fleet size, from minutes of moonlight in 2026 toward daylight-level intensity in the 2030s.
