Nano-JASMINE
open-in-new
<p>The Nano-Japan Astrometry Satellite Mission for Infrared Exploration (Nano-JASMINE) is an <a href="/facts/Astrometry/9ycEEAvD">astrometric</a> <a href="/facts/Small_satellite/vXN5EwvX">microsatellite</a> developed by the <a href="/facts/National_Astronomical_Observatory_of_Japan/SwLo2NV2">National Astronomical Observatory of Japan</a>, with contributions by the <a href="/facts/University_of_Tokyo/Td0xnQDF">University of Tokyo</a>'s Intelligent Space Systems Laboratory (ISSL). As of 2015, the satellite was planned for launch together with <a href="/facts/CHEOPS/tJ5JRNkx">CHEOPS</a> (Characterizing Exoplanets Satellite) in 2019. However, this launch took place in December 2019 without Nano-JASMINE as one of the three piggyback payloads. Some sources named 2022 as the launch year of the satellite. By 2023, the launch had been cancelled and the satellite is now displayed in <a href="/facts/Kakamigahara_Air_and_Space_Museum/mSdEYbNl">Kakamigahara Air and Space Museum</a>. </p>
