NOAA’s session cancellations at AMS included sessions addressing efforts to resolve problems with the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-17 Advanced Baseline Imager.
Agile Microsat, or AMS, is a standardized 6U cubesat bus that Blue Canyon designed, built, and tested for MIT Lincoln Laboratory.
The AMS is equipped with an Enpulsion NANO AR3 electric propulsion thruster that will attempt to maneuver to the lowest altitude possible.
A Cygnus cargo spacecraft delivered AMS repair equipment to the station in a launch that occurred the day after a 2019-11-01 briefing at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility.
