SATHYABAMASAT′s primary mission is to measure the densities of the green house gases over the region in which it moves on using ARGUS 1000 IR Spectrometer. The payload is operated only over the regions where the experimentators are interested, and it delivers the data to the On-Board Computer (OBC) for transmission, when it crosses the radio window of ground station, which is being built in Sathyabama University premises, Chennai, India.
