Description:

• RED-EYE is a proprietary investigation that develops and demonstrates technologies that increase the utility of low-cost microsatellites. RED-EYE demonstrates lightweight, low-power, gimballed inter-satellite communications links appropriate for the approximately 100 kg class satellites. RED-EYE also demonstrates new attitude control components, onboard processors, software-defined radios and telescope technology.

Mission details:

• REDEYE-3 was deployed around 2110 UTC on Jun 23, 2020. Deployment was by the Dextre SPDM, not the JRMS.
