MTI
2000-014A
MTI is the Multispectral Thermal Imager, P97-3. MTI will demonstrate multispectral and thermal imaging technology for both military and civilian applications, mainly to study applications for treaty monitoring. MTI carries a piggyback experiment, the HXRS sensor to give advance warning of hard X-ray solar events. Mass is 597 kg. Size is 2.5m h 1.22m dia and 4.1m span. Launch by Taurus in late 1999. Sponsor is the DoE Office of Nonproliferation and National Security. MTI was shipped to Sandia SNL/Albequerque in Jul 1999. Sandia integrated the satellite using a bus designed in collaboration with Ball.
