"Come back alive" ("повернись живим") and "Sergij Prytula foundation" is two biggest foundation in Ukraine. Also is lot of local volunteer groups (like "port frankivsk" for example, who literally produce hand-made fpv-drones). And of course lot of people, who personal try find money for cars, mavics, night vision sys etc for them combat units. Illustration of this kind of "job" you can see on facebook profile ukrainian poet Sergij Zhadan. Thank you!
Where is that Prytula's satellite has gone? Nobody has seen it or results of its work. Millions were donated
It's hillarious, how you ignore(intentionally? idk) simple google search. Type "Prytula satellite" and you'll see a bunch of relevant articles on a topic of results and gains. Even more, a wiki page on "People's satellite" with dedicated "Reported results” section with a summery.

What else do you need to stop being just a rus propaganda noise?
Google search does not prove anything. Have you seen any images sattelite made of russiest positions in ukrainian media? I'm not. For example illegal russiest Crimea bridge after any attack was always showed with US Maxar satellite help.
1. Because ICEYE is not an optical telescope. Imagery it provides is more like electromagnetic "echolocation" data. It has to be transformed and processed to give some intel.
2. Foundation bought one satellite, but got an access untill the end of war to the whole constellation of satellites that are already in orbit(answer to pre-edited "why not see rocket make brrr").
Example of ukrainian source.

Thanks for the link. However if minister of defence was involved here, the people who funded this project should expect a dirty deal. Not sure if it was realy required for ZSU, if NATO provides all required satellite intel during this war and if all the amount of money paid was reasonable price.
Minister of Defence, mentioned with big thanks to Prytula, is widely known to be very corrupted person with supplying so called "golden eggs", 4 times more expensive than in retail winter jackets for army, paying in advance 36 billions UAH for ammunition supply, which have never took place. Thus, he cannot be trusted.
