Momentus signed a contract modification with NASA's Kennedy Space Center to provide orbital delivery services to transport two satellites to orbit for NASA's LLITED mission targeted to launch in 2023.
The Low-Latitude Ionosphere/Thermosphere Enhancements in Density(LLITED) mission will make an important contribution toward understanding weather in space that impacts our lives on Earth. The CubeSats will measure and study two features of the nighttime upper atmosphere: the equatorial temperature and wind anomaly that occurs in the neutral atmosphere, and the equatorial ionization anomaly that occurs in the region containing charged particles.
