Speaker

Heil, Melanie (ESA)

Description

The measurement requirements of ESA's Distributed Space Weather Sensor System (D3S) include sub-mm particle measurements in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) as well as Geostationary Orbit. The currently ongoing small satellite study for D3S is looking at the opportunity to host a micro-particle instrument in the few kg range to address this requirement for LEO. An overview of the D3S measurement requirements as well as the SmallSat mission will be provided.
