Clarreo Pathfinder: Mission Overview and Current Status

The Climate Absolute Radiance and Refractivity Observatory (CLARREO) Pathfinder (CPF) mission consists of a high accuracy reflected solar spectrometer that will take measurements from the International Space Station for one year starting in 2023. CPF will demonstrate that its novel on-orbit absolute calibration approaches are capable of achieving 0.3% (1-sigma) radiometric uncertainty. Additionally, using its two-axis pointing gimbal which enables nearly-concurrent measurements matching look angles with other orbiting sensors, CPF will demonstrate a novel inter-calibration approach by inter-calibrating CERES and VIIRS. CPF is currently in its Final Design and Fabrication Stage and recently passed its Critical Design Review.
