Exciting momentum for the PolSIR mission as NASA moves another step closer to launch. Our industry-trusted CubeSat platform technology will enable scientists to better understand Earth’s dynamic atmosphere and its impact on weather by studying ice clouds that form at high altitudes throughout tropical and sub-tropical regions. Blue Canyon's 16U CubeSat bus will provide the guidance, navigation and control precision to meet PolSIR's stringent pointing requirements as well as the volume and power needed to support the mission's highly advanced weather radiometer that will capture heat waves and hidden light waves from ice clouds to help scientists understand changing weather patterns. We look forward to supporting this important Earth observation mission as it advances toward launch next year.
