Technical Session VI: The Upcoming Year
Abstract
The University of Tokyo and National Astronomical Observatory of Japan have been developing a small infrared astrometry satellite named “Nano-JASMINE”. This is about 50cm cubic and 15kg size satellite and it aims to achieve 1 milli arcsecond astrometry data for stars of magnitude of 7.5. And this is traditional large satellite scientific data class. Therefore Nano-JASMINE has advanced specification compared to past small satellites. It can achieve 1 arcsecond attitude control accuracy using customize fiber optical gyros and mission telescope and also 0.1[K] thermal stability by multilayer adiabatic structure. Also new centralized information architecture is adopted to simplify the system. Nano-JAMINE satellite system and missions are described in this paper.
