By detecting Planet Janssen, or 55 Cancri e (41 light years away), ASTERIA far surpassed the expectations and opened the field of exoplanet detection “to ever-smaller telescopes on ever-smaller satellites.” The Arcsecond Space Telescope Enabling Research In Astrophysics (ASTERIA) continued the prior and cancelled Exoplanet mission to search for new exoplanet transits around stars. ASTERIA achieved an incredible pointing stability to an exoplanet better than 0.5 arcseconds and thermal stability of 0.01ºC!!! So the ASTERIA mission “demonstrated a significant improvement in the capability of small satellites” (Small Satellite Mission of the 2018 Year Award). A truly successful testimony of the viability of cutting-edge astrophysics in CubeSats.
