Abstract

ISSL is now developing a new super small satellites for Earth remote sensing, "PRISM". This satellite has a unique optics system with flexible extensible boom, aiming at 30m ground resolution. Super small remote sensing satellite can be used for the low-cost global Earth observation missions. To achieve such high ground resolution with flexible telescope, it has some compensation strategies against structural errors or dynamic movement. This satellite will be launched with GOSAT by H-IIA rocket in 2008, and we have finished FM development phase. This paper describes its key concepts and features of PRISM, as well as the problems we encountered and the methodologies for project management by university students.
