Description
ABSTRACT:The proposed effort will demonstrate new technologies to fill gaps in the AF space situational awareness capabilities. A payload will be fabricated and integrated into a cubesat bus and tested to verify its suitability for a future space experiment. A test plan will be written for testing the satellite in a space experiment.BENEFIT:This program will fill capability gaps for expanding requirements in AF space situational awareness. The approach of using a cubesat to carry out the space flight demonstration will dramatically reduce the cost of the demonstration and the time for it to be carried out compared to more traditional space sensor development programs.
