#Hera, European Space Agency - ESA’s first planetary defence mission, is headed to space now. 🚀 Kuva Space is proud to play a key role in the #Heramission, working alongside Finnish partners from research, academia, and industry, including VTT, Aalto University, the University of Helsinki, and Huld, since its inception. 🇫🇮 The #hyperspectral camera, integrated into one of the mission’s #CubeSats, has been central to our co-development efforts with VTT. 📷 In addition, Kuva Space designed the data processing unit for the hyperspectral camera, as well as the life-support systems for both CubeSats, ensuring their survival during the cruise phase. This #hyperspectral technology not only offers vital insights for planetary protection but also enhances our ability to analyze asteroid composition. Looking ahead, Kuva Space’s innovations may play a crucial role in mapping asteroid resources across our solar system. For now, we are thrilled to be part of this effort in advancing asteroid exploration. photo credit: ESA #space #exploration #didymos #asteroids #cubesats

Sunstorm mission exceeded its initial two-year lifespan and set a new benchmark for solar X-ray observations! 👏 After three years in orbit, Sunstorm CubeSat re-entered Earth's atmosphere on September 4, 2024, exceeding its original mission goals. 🙌 Launched by Kuva Space and Isaware under the European Space Agency - ESA’s Program, Sunstorm’s X-ray Flux Monitor (XFM-CS) collected the most extensive data on solar X-ray flares to date. This data is crucial for improving space weather forecasts, protecting critical infrastructure like satellites and power grids. We are proud to see that the mission has paved the way for future scientific missions, including a version of the XFM slated for NOAA’s Space Weather NEXT program, which will launch in 2029. 🌎 Discover more about the mission in our newly released press release—link in the comments. #SpaceInnovation #CubeSat #SolarFlares #SpaceWeather
