Mission Details

SERVIS-1

SERVIS-1, or Space Environment Reliability Verification Integrated System 1, is a Japanese satellite designed for testing the performance of commercial off-the-shelf products in the space environment. The satellite was active for two years. All the modules on the satellite worked as planned. The mission tested a number of electronic components and determined that the rate of single-event upsets at its 1000 km orbit was substantially less than had been expected from tests using heavy ion bombardment on the ground.
