The commissioning and early operations of the high energy HERMES payload onboard SpIRIT
Abstract
The Space Industry Responsive Intelligent Thermal (SpIRIT) 6U CubeSat, launched in late 2023 is an Australian-Italian mission for high-energy astrophysics that carries in a Sun-synchronous orbit an actively cooled HERMES detector system payload.
We will provide an overview of the SpIRIT early orbital operations, with the commissioning and in-flight calibrations of the instrument.
