SPRITE
Description

Observing the remnants of exploded stars. The Supernova remnants Proxies for Reionization and Integrated Testbed Experiment (SPRITE) CubeSat is a 12U CubeSat designed to carry out two science objectives. SPRITE will spend roughly half of the projected two-year baseline mission mapping shock emission in supernova remnants in the Milky Way and Magellanic Clouds, and the other half determining the escape fraction of hydrogen ionizing radiation from 100 low-redshift star forming galaxies. In parallel with the science operations, SPRITE will execute a calibration program that will track the stability of the mirror coatings and detector over the mission lifetime.
