Kubsat of the National Research Nuclear University «MEPhI». 

The satellite will track forest fires, equipped with a thermal imaging camera, which will quickly detect fires and thermal anomalies on the Earth's surface. A visible-range color camera is needed for photofixation of fires with a resolution of 15-17 meters per pixel. To correct and maintain the orbit on the satellite, there is a propulsion system developed by the LaPlace Institute and students of the MEPhI National Research University.
