Argentina's Atenea Microsatellite to Launch with NASA's Artemis II Mission
SPACE ECONOMY
Argentina's Atenea microsatellite, developed by Conae and Veng S.A., will launch with NASA's Artemis II mission on February 6, 2024. This mission aims to validate technologies for future space endeavors by measuring radiation and assessing components, reaching over 70,000 kilometers from Earth—a record for an Argentine satellite. Collaborative efforts involve multiple Argentine institutions, and the data collected will be vital for NASA's research.
