Oneliner	Observe solar radiation and transmit along with beacon signal.
Description	Demonstrate cubesat capabilities that can observe solar radiation and transmit along with beacon signal. It is purely for non-commerical purposes as a technology demonstration mission. Advancement of Amateur Satellite Service: The mission demonstrates small satellite technology for solar radiation observation, promoting amateur satellite use for scientific research, and fostering global participation through open data sharing. Educational Impact: The satellite will serve as an educational tool, offering opportunities for amateur operators to engage with space technology and contribute to real-time mission monitoring and data analysis. Global Amateur Participation: Amateur radio operators worldwide can track the satellite, decode its telemetry, and assist with mission success by providing feedback, contributing to satellite health monitoring, and participating in propagation studies. Data Accessibility: The CubeSat will broadcast a beacon signal and telemetry data that amateur operators can receive, decode, and analyze, actively engaging them in the mission beyond just receiving information. This summary highlights how the mission fosters both technical involvement and global collaboration within the amateur satellite community. Planning a Innospace launch from Alcantara Space Center Brazil in MArch 2025 into a 500 km 40 degree inclination orbit.
