Description: The goal of the Nano-Stratospheric Aerosol Measurement (NanoSAM) mission is to produce a compact method of measuring aerosol concentration in the stratosphere. NanoSAM aims to fill the need of increasing the availability of aerosol measurements by providing a low-cost, low-mass instrument that can be deployed into Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) a constellation.
