Why so much negativity under this post? This is a positive in terms of global scientific and technological progress.

[redox99 → sheunl]

Probably because people are annoyed that "launching satellites" is portrayed as a major feat (as it once was), when nowadays launching a CubeSat is not that impressive.

[Narishma → sheunl]

Probably because of the original clickbait title, which seems to have been changed by the mods to be more accurate.

Yep. They have a niche there. The only worthy alternative in their space is QGIS.

[perfect-blue → sheunl]

We use QGIS in our research environments because it’s free, open source, and is cross-platform. It’s the only fully featured GIS suite that Mac/Linux users can use that I’m aware of. Always looking for suggestions though.
