RockSat-X 2016
Project Imua Mission 2 involved the development of a small payload named PrIME ("Project Imua Multiple Experiment") that carried a sublimation rocket that was deployed at apogee and a neutron-gamma ray detector, along with video cameras and IMU detectors. This Mission participated in RockSat-X 2016. PrIME was launched into space on a sub-orbital trajectory from NASA Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia in August 2016. Despite the successful launch, the payload was lost in the Altantic recovery area.
