RadMon-on-ISS

ESA project astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski will conduct a variety of science experiments and technology demonstrations during the Ignis mission. Sławosz will carry out 13 experiments proposed by Polish companies and institutions and developed together with ESA. Grouped into four key areas, this mission will contribute to advancing our understanding of human health, technology, materials science and biotechnology in space, while offering solutions and insights that can also benefit life on Earth. 

The Scalable Radiation Monitor, by SigmaLabs, measures the radiation levels in space and how it affects the chips (small electronic circuits) that operate onboard satellites and space station systems. The data collected will help develop electronic systems that can adapt to the harsh radiation of space, ensuring they work and process data reliably for future missions.
