Ghost-4, a commercial technology demonstration satellite testing compact sensor and communications hardware for future small-satellite constellations, one of several similarly-named satellites from the same operator testing incremental hardware improvements across successive missions. As with its sibling satellites in the series, its specific test objectives were not widely publicized, consistent with how most small technology demonstrators operate outside the spotlight of a flagship mission.
