"Novosibirsk State University has signed a long-term partnership agreement with the State Corporation Roscosmos and the Russian Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring. The cooperation involves equipping small CubeSat spacecraft created in the Department of Aerospace Research (OAI) NSU, equipment for monitoring heliogeophysical parameters in low Earth orbits (monitoring of "space weather"). Such devices will be launched into orbit within the framework of the Roscosmos "UniverSat" program, " the report says.
