Europa Clipper Magnetometer (ECM)

A mission to assess the habitability of Jupiter's moon Europa. Launched October 2024; 49 close flybys of Europa are planned beginning in April 2030.

CIRCE
UK / US
Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer (INMS). Part of IRIS suite

Twin 6U CubeSats in a lead–trail formation, studying temporal variation of polar ionosphere. Launched in January 2023 as part of the UK's first orbital launch attempt; the rocket did not reach orbit.

SOAR
University of Manchester
Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer (INMS)

3U CubeSat testing drag-reducing materials and steerable aerodynamic fins in very low Earth orbit. Part of the DISCOVERER project. Launched 2021 and died from latch-up in early 2022

Phoenix
QB50 / NCKU
Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer (INMS)

2U CubeSat measuring composition and density of ionosphere/thermosphere from low Earth orbit. Part of the QB50 programme. Deployed from the ISS, 2017.
