How do you decide when to water your yard? Maybe you do every day, no matter what, or maybe you have a moisture sensor buried in the ground that controls your sprinklers. Or maybe you simply look outside. Satellogic CEO Emiliano Kargieman thinks that in just a few years, satellite data will be cheap and accessible enough to give you the same information.

His startup has already launched three small test satellites, and has hundreds more planned for the next six years. The first commercially available satellite will go up next year. Together, the satellites are expected to be able to deliver a live video stream and constant pictures of the Earth. And anyone will be able to purchase access.

He likened it to wearable devices, which can tell their user how many steps they took in a day or how well they slept.
