HARP 🌈🛰 is on the @Space_Station now!
A tiny satellite seeking clouds ☁️ and aerosols is now on @ISS_Research after launching from @NASA_Wallops on Nov. 2! The HARP CubeSat plans to leave the space station and start its own orbit early in 2020. blogs.nasa.gov/spacestation/…

A new CubeSat will soon launch from @NASA_Wallops to the @ISS_research! This tiny satellite will see rainbows 🌈, measuring clouds ☁️ and particles in the atmosphere to help us better understand air quality, weather and climate change.

ALT The image shows a STARS simulation of the orbits of four satellites (A, B, C and D) involved in a coordinated observation. The satellites are in distinct orbit planes so they rely on dynamic planning of multi-hop communication links to ensure they can queue other instruments to take high-priority measurements.
ALT TEMPEST-D captures intense precipitation in tropical cyclones on a global basis from a small satellite. This image shows combined TEMPEST-D 165 GHz brightness temperature imagery (in the horizontal plane) and RainCube Ka-band radar reflectivity profile (in the vertical plane) across Typhoon Trami on 28 Sept. 2018.

Happy birthday @NASA! Today marks #NASA60th & without the past 6 decades of science & exploration, we would have far less knowledge about our home planet, the solar system & the cosmos beyond. Follow this thread for a few #NASAScience discoveries we've gained over the past 60 yrs

Some of the biggest advances in technology come in the smallest sizes. Because of the quick development time and easier access to space, CubeSats have become the perfect platform to test how a new technology will perform in orbit. #NASA4Earth
