HyperView-1G and Colibri-S spacecraft with hyperspectral vision have been developed and prepared for launch at Samara University named after Korolev. They are planned to be used for monitoring forest fires and oil pollution on Earth from space, the university's press service reported.
The launch of the nanosatellites, named HyperView-1G and Colibri-S, is scheduled for November. The nanosatellites have passed all tests and are ready for launch.
The new devices are capable of "seeing" the world in a multi-channel spectral display and highlighting the properties of objects.
The six-unit HyperView-1G is equipped with a hyperspectrometer with a very high spatial resolution - up to 7 m per pixel in short-term mode and 13 m per pixel in long-term mode, which is the best, record-breaking indicator for Russian nanosatellites. The hyperspectrometer on the three-unit Colibri-S is weaker, its resolution is about 60 m per pixel, which is several times higher than that of similar spacecraft of this class in Russia.
HyperView-1G consists of six cubes with an edge length of 10 cm. It is equipped with a powerful long-focus lens of domestic production for operation in the infrared range — from 400 to 1000 nm. The number of spectral channels is from 150 to 300.
The Colibri-S spacecraft consists of three units and is built on the Geoscan 3U CubeSat standard platform. The model is equipped with a 10x15 mm hyperspectral camera for operation in the visible range and a Jupiter 3.5/135 mm lens.
The service life of the satellites is 3 years.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that a new Russian Aist-ST satellite is being tested.
