The primary objective of the Risk Reduction Flight (RRF) mission is to allow for satellite imagery resorting to the Optical Front-End (OFE), designed to provide a 5-meter resolution for the specified orbit of the spacecraft.
Mission will focus on testing:
The different sub-systems of the satellite, such as electronics in general and the control board in particular
The communication systems
The performance of maneuvers using the propulsion system embarked
The Attitude and Orbit Control software
The data flow from transferring pictures captured by a mid-resolution telescope to earth
