Universal Low-Orbit Space Platforms for Interacting Micro- and Nanosatellites of Earth Remote Sensing and Disaster Monitoring (Twinsat-Rs Project)

Abstract

A project was designed to create a universal low-orbit space platform that meets the requirements on joint satellites operation in paired structures (space duo) for high-resolution radar imagery; constructing topographic maps and determining the movements of the Earth’s surface to assess seismic hazard and prevent natural and man-made disasters; indicating and determining the parameters of moving objects; constructing high-speed intersatellite communication systems, etc.
