Abstract :

Abstract The "DivyaSat" project aims to tackle climate change and global warming by employing miniature, cost-effective instruments on a CubeSat platform. Inspired by the success of MeznSat, DivyaSat plans to utilize a shortwave infrared (SWIR) micro-spectrometer, called Argus 2000, to measure greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. Alongside the SWIR spectrometer, DivyaSat will incorporate a high-definition camera for accurate geolocation. This combination of instruments positions DivyaSat as a unique CubeSat mission capable of generating valuable data for atmospheric correction algorithms. This abstract provides an overview of DivyaSat's mission objectives, design, and potential contributions to understanding greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere.
