CubeSat Measures World's First Ice Cloud Map to Support Climate Research
Abstract
Virginia Diodes, Inc. received NASA SBIR Awards to fund research and development for a lesser developed region of the electromagnetic spectrum—terahertz waves. Their work led to funding from NASA ESTO, and the resulting CubeSat (named IceCube) captured the world’s first ice cloud map, which will contribute to our understanding of Earth’s climate
