ULTRASAT

Comment: What's needed for the article to pass is reliable, independent sources that cover ULTRASAT specifically in depth. Most of your current sources, though reliable, do not talk about ULTRASAT in depth and therefore do not help show that it is notable. As an aside, sources can be in any language, so if there are Hebrew sources from Israel that are reliable, independent, and in depth, you can include them.

A model of the planned ULTRASAT satellite ULTRASAT ( Ul traviolet Tr ansient A stronomy Sat ellite) is an astronomical mini-satellite whose unprecedentedly large field of view, 210 square degrees, will detect and monitor transient astronomical events in the near-ultraviolet (220–280 nm) spectral region. ULTRASAT will observe a large patch of sky, alternating every six months between the southern and northern hemisphere. The satellite will be launched into geosynchronous orbit in 2023. All ULTRASAT data will be transmitted to the ground in real time. Upon detection of a transient event, ULTRASAT will provide alerts within 20 minutes to other ground-based and space telescopes to be directed to the source for further observation of the event in other wavelength bands. ULTRASAT will study the hot transient universe. The extra-Galactic volume accessible to ULTRASAT for the discovery of transient sources will be 300 times larger than that of the most sensitive UV satellite to date, GALEX . It is comparable to that of the largest ground-based optical transient survey planned to begin operation in 2022, LSST . The ULTRASAT spacecraft will be constructed by the Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), and the telescope will be constructed by the El-Op division of Elbit Systems . ULTRASAT is jointly funded and managed by the Israel Space Agency and the Weizmann Institute of Science (WIS), under the scientific leadership of the WIS, and with a significant contribution of the DESY center of the Helmholtz association. ULTRASAT is planned for a 3-year operation at a GEO orbit. Its small mass and volume, 160 kg and <1m3, allows a launch to GEO as a secondary payload.

ULTRASAT ( Ul traviolet Tr ansient A stronomy Sat ellite) is a space telescope in a smallsat format with a large field of view, 210 square degrees, that will detect and monitor transient astronomical events in the near-ultraviolet (220–280 nm) spectral region. ULTRASAT will observe a large patch of sky, alternating every six months between the southern and northern hemisphere. The satellite will be launched into geosynchronous orbit in early 2026. All ULTRASAT data will be transmitted to the ground in real time.
