Solar Activity Measurement Experiment (SAMEX)

Description

SAMEX is the first step in providing the Air Force with a Solar Activity Forecasting and Monitoring System in Space (SAFMSS). SAMEX will provide the test bed for a high spatial resolution soft X-ray/EUV imager (20-150 A) and a high resolution vector magnetograph. The proposed payload will be flown as part of the Space Test Program and subsequently used to form the kernel of a Solar Activity Monitoring Satellite (SAMSAT) that has been proposed by the Air Weather Service
