Sun Radio Interferometer Space Experiment


The Sun Radio Interferometer Space Experiment, is a set of CubeSats designed to study solar activity by acting as an aperture synthesis radio telescope. It is intended to monitor giant [solar particle storm]s. The satellites will occupy a supersynchronous geosynchronous Earth orbit. The participants in the experiment include JPL, the University of Colorado Boulder and the University of Michigan. It is expected to be launched in mid-2026.

Status

, the six satellites have been built and are going into storage to await their Vulcan Centaur launch vehicle.
