Overview
The PolCube Mission Program Contact The PolCube Mission Launch Date: November 3, 2025 PolCube is a compact 12-unit (12U) CubeSat and multi-angle, multi-wavelength polarimeter instrument developed through an international collaboration — primarily involving NASA’s Langley Research Center and the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI). It measures both the intensity and polarization of sunlight reflected off Earth across multiple angles and light wavelengths (410–864 nm) to characterize atmospheric particles and ocean properties. Polarimeters like PolCube measure light not only at multiple wavelengths, but also measure both the intensity and polarization at multiple angles NASA/Tim Marvel Program Contact Program Scientist: Snorre Stamnes Contact Snorre Stamnes Langley Latest News Access Langley Science Article 6 Min Read NASA Science Soars During August Total Solar Eclipse Blog
