Israel will orbit a satellite dedicated to scientific research. One of the two experiments studied for deployment on this platform is a three-channel imager in the ultraviolet proposed by Tel Aviv University and designed jointly by staff of the Wise Observatory and of El-Op (Electro-Optical Industries, Ltd.). The design provides very significant scientific returns in a small payload and for a moderate cost.
