In-flight monitoring<br />

Spectral region 3 - 15 µm<br />

Stability<br />

≤ 0.01 K<br />

<strong>The</strong> practice <strong>of</strong> the remote sensing <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Earth</strong> shows that the<br />

traditional in-flight monitoring techniques do not assure the required<br />

long-term stability.<br />

Approaches to problem solution<br />

• Develop and use onboard sources based upon phase transition <strong>of</strong><br />

substances.<br />

Studies are required to<br />

- select suitable substances,<br />

- determine their properties under the space environment<br />

- design onboard sources.<br />

• Develop a space-borne radiometric calibration facility<br />
