1. ESA/ESTEC CERN Visit December 9/10 th 2014 CELESTA a CERN cubeSat Project

2. ESA/ESTEC CERN Visit December 9/10 th 2014 3x ‘What if’ What if a RadMon like monitor ‘kit’ could be useful for cube-Sat missions? What if the energy dependency of SEL and other events is also to be considered for space missions? What if mixed-field tests could prove efficient for cube-Sat missions? Motivation 2
