The first MYRIADE scientific mission has been launched on 29th june 2004., the second in december 2004 together with a constellation of 4 small satellites of the French Armament Agency developed by industry on a MYRIADE basis. Other missions are under study or development at CNES or at industry . MYRIADE is the result of a CNES in house development. Lessons learnt and success conditions have been well identified from the beginning of the Line of Product development, with a lot if various difficulties. The performances of this complete system are very well adapted to a great number of missions.
