Abstract: The basic approaches to the implementation of scientific space experiment “Ionosat Micro”, aimed at the study of dynamic processes in the ionosphere are presented. The project is based on a comprehensive ground-space exploration of near space carried out in previous years by Ukrainian scientific community. It is expected that this experiment will lay the foundations of a large-scale project on monitoring of near space via space constellation “Ionosat”.
Keywords: ionosphere, project “Ionosat”, near space, space weather.
