An Exercise in Satellite Mission Design
Today’s bite is an overview of the science motivation and design for a mid-resolution UV hybrid imaging-spectrograph concept named MAUVE!
The KIDS are Alright
Today’s paper showcases the performances of new kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) that will enable observations of infrared and millimeter light that have the potential to advance various areas of astronomy and cosmology.
High-Resolution Optical Spectroscopy from a CubeSat? It’s more likely than you think!
Today’s bite is an overview of the design and science case for future ESA CubeSat mission, CubeSpec!
Reaching for the Stars
Satellites are proliferating in our low earth orbit. Data from the Steward Observatory characterizes which areas of the sky and which satellite models are the most bright, likely to interfere with astronomical observations.
