Description Polish company Scanway is preparing, in cooperation with German Orbital Systems, the STAR VIBE satellite mission. The objective of the STAR VIBE mission is to test the in-space operation of the high-resolution optical telescope STAR (Small Telescope for Advanced Reconnaissance) and the VIBE (Vision Inspection Boom Experiment) satellite self-diagnostic system developed by Scanway. STAR VIBE mission will allow checking how space conditions: UV radiation, vacuum, demanding temperature cycles, and microgravity influence: electronics allowing to acquisition data from optical sensors, their processing, and recording, mechanical constructions of optical systems, and designs of optical systems aimed at observation of Earth from the orbit, an inspection of changes and potential failures in satellites. The mission will also verify whether such factors affect the quality of the acquired images during on-orbit operations.
