VERIFICATION AND CALIBRATION OF THE PAYLOAD INSTRUMENTS OF THE CO2M MISSION: CO2I SPECTROMETER TVAC CHARACTERIZATION

In 30 seconds

This mission utilizes a constellation of three LEO satellites to continuously monitor anthropogenic CO2 and methane emissions. It features high-precision spectroscopic imaging with a 250 km swath and 2 x 2 km2 spatial resolution. The focus is on the rigorous verification and vacuum characterization of payload instruments to ensure consistent long-term greenhouse gas quantification.
