NASA CANVAS CubeSat Targets Lightning-Space Weather Link

NASA's CANVAS CubeSat will measure very-low-frequency radio waves from lightning and human transmitters to track energy flow from the ionosphere into the magnetosphere. The data is intended to improve space weather models that satellite operators rely on to assess radiation exposure risks.
