SVOM satellite  

Définition(s)

  • The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a planned small X-ray telescope satellite under development by China National Space Administration (CNSA), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and the French Space Agency (CNES), to be launched at the end of 2023. SVOM will study the explosions of massive stars by analysing the resulting gamma-ray bursts. The light-weight X-ray mirror for SVOM weighs just 1 kg (2.2 lb). SVOM will add new capabilities to the work of finding gamma-ray bursts currently being done by the multinational satellite Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission. Its anti-solar pointing strategy makes the Earth cross the field of view of its payload every orbit. (Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Variable_Objects_Monitor)
