abstract = "The INPE-UFSM's NANOSATC-BR, CubSats Development Program, started
with the NANOSATC-BR1 (NCBR1), a CubeSat 1U type (10x10x11,3 cm),
designed to host technological payloads experiments to test the
radhard electronic circuits and a XEN-1210 magnetometer
(resolution of 15 nT) to measure intensities of the Earth magnetic
field over the South American Magnetic Anomaly (SAMA). The NCBR1
was launched on June 2014 at the Yasny base, Russia, and has
completed more than five years in orbit. This Brazilian space
mission was the first scientific Brazilian mission using CubeSats
to generate data at an altitude of about 600 km. The second
mission is named NANOSATC-BR2 (NCBR2), a 2U CubeSat (10x10x22.6
cm), a continuation of the successful NCBR-1. The NANOSATC-BR2
will have a similar altitude in a polar orbit as NCBR1. The
NANOSATC-BR2 was designed with significant improvements to
accommodate six experiments, but here we will focus on the two
scientific payloads. One magnetometer, is similar to the one on
the NCBR1, but with broader scientific capability. It will be
possible to obtain the three magnetic field components and ULF
pulsation over the SAMA region and also able to compare the data
from the SAMA region with the Equatorial and Polar regions, and
with the existing geomagnetic field models, contribute in this way
to improve these models. The second scientific experiment is a
Langmuir probe that measures the electron density and electron
temperature in the Ionosphere. This experiment has many scientific
goals, highlighting the studies regarding the electron
precipitation and the plasma instability processes in the SAMA
region. These kinds of studies are essential because the
satellites and the precise location of the GNSS services are
strongly affected in this region, mainly due to the lowest
magnetic field presented in the SAMA and because of the presence
of ionospheric instabilities. The in-situ measurements of electron
density and electron temperature will permit studies of the Plasma
Bubble phenomena in more detail and provide a more extensive
database for improving the existing ionospheric models. The data
from the scientific experiments on-board the NCBR2 will complement
the ground-based data obtained from different instruments
techniques. The launch of NCBR2 is contracted and scheduled for
the first quarter of 2020.",
