About this report
Hemeria’s “BalMan” stratospheric balloon is prepared for launch from the European Spaceport in French Guiana. The CNES-directed project, supported by France’s defense agency, successfully tested BalMan in October 2024, validating the balloon’s high-altitude envelope and flight systems .
The Toulouse-based company – founded in 2019 after carving out Nexeya’s space and sovereign-defense divisions – specializes in nanosatellite constellations and high-altitude platforms. Hemeria designs equipment like the HP-EOS smallsat bus and tethered aerostats to give Europe independent surveillance and communications capabilities.
