Score Rationale

Alba Orbital shows YC affiliation and a plausible Earth observation mission, but no named founders, defense experience indicators, or government contracts are evident. The 15-minute revisit claim is technically ambitious but not unprecedented in commercial LEO constellations (Planet, Maxar), and without visible SBIR awards, customer pilots, or funding details, the company lacks the validation signals typical of investment-stage defense tech.
