论文摘要
在过去的二十年中,太空天气科学和小型卫星(SmallSAT)技术的进步已经取得了平行的发展,但是在各自的全球社区中,需要更好的沟通和协调,从而为这一快速进步做出了贡献。我们确定了特别需要改善国际协调的六个领域,包括:(1)轨道碎片缓解; (2)频谱管理; (3)出口控制法规; (4)获得及时和低成本的发射机会; (5)包容性数据政策; (6)教育。我们认为,需要进行国际协调的政策和计划,以促进Smallsats用于太空天气研究和预测,同时通过整合这两个日益重要的努力来实现最大的科学和技术进步。
Advances in space weather science and small satellite (SmallSat) technology have proceeded in parallel over the past two decades, but better communication and coordination is needed among the respective worldwide communities contributing to this rapid progress. We identify six areas where improved international coordination is especially desirable, including: (1) orbital debris mitigation; (2) spectrum management; (3) export control regulations; (4) access to timely and low-cost launch opportunities; (5) inclusive data policies; and (6) education. We argue the need for internationally coordinated policies and programs to promote the use of SmallSats for space weather research and forecasting while realizing maximum scientific and technical advances through the integration of these two increasingly important endeavors.
