Description
Summary:The Active Cooling for Multispectral Earth Sensors (ACMES) is a 16U CubeSat mission funded under the NASA Earth Science Technology Office. ACMES will simultaneously advance two new technologies. The first technology is the Active Thermal Architecture, a complete end-to-end solution for active thermal control of cryogenic instruments on nanosatellites. The second technology is the hyperspectral imaging in the IR using both spatially modulated interferometric and spatially modulated spectral imaging techniques. The ACMES mission is being led by Utah State University with the University of Hawaii and implemented by Orion Space Solutions, with a delivery for launch in late 2024.
