Sun Radio Interferometer Space Experiment

The Sun Radio Interferometer Space Experiment (SunRISE), is a set of CubeSats designed to study solar activity by acting as an aperture synthesis radio telescope. It is intended to monitor giant solar particle storms.

The satellites will occupy a supersynchronous geosynchronous Earth orbit.

The participants in the experiment include JPL, the University of Colorado Boulder and the University of Michigan. It is due to be launched in 2024.

Status
, the six satellites have been built and are going into storage to await their Vulcan Centaur launch vehicle.
