Additional information SENSE SV2
Develop best practices for operational CubeSat/NanoSat procurement, development, test, and operations. To mature CubeSat bus and sensor component technology readiness levels and to demonstrate the operational utility of CubeSat measurements by flowing validated, low-latency data into operational space weather models. The other satellite has a Wind Ion Neutral Composite Suite (WINCS) to acquire simultaneous co-located, in situ measurements of atmospheric and ionospheric density, composition, temperature and winds/drifts. Mission data will be used to improve current and future space weather models and demonstrate the utility of data from CubeSats for operational weather requirements.
