Swarm's 1/4U satellites have a radar signature as bright as that of conventional CubeSats. This is due to a state-of-the-art radar retro-reflector technology onboard their satellites. Their satellites have internet data speeds for text messages and cost a few hundred thousand dollars each. Each of the Swarm satellites weighs about 300 grams or two-thirds of a pound. They are the size of sandwich (10 cm X 10 cm X 2.8 cm).
