RadCube was a technology demonstration CubeSat for space weather monitoring technologies, operated by the European Space Agency (ESA) in low Earth orbit between 2021 and 2024. The satellite was constructed by the Hungarian company C3S with contributions from the Hungarian Centre for Energy Research, the UK's Imperial College, and the Polish company Astronika. The satellite successfully demonstrated its radiation telescope, its set of "MAGIC" magnetometer sensors, and its extendable boom. The MAGIC magnetometer will be implemented on future space missions including HENON, ESA's first stand-alone deep space CubeSat.
