Atomic Gravity Gradiometer for Earth Gravity Mapping and Monitoring Measurements

Verify the atomic gradiometer technology through
a) Achieving beyond state-of-the art performance
with terrestrial instrument
b) Testing space operation mode in laboratory
simulated microgravity
c) Conducting error budget analysis for an atomic
gradiometer measurement in space
d) Development of this technology will enable highspatial
resolution measurements of time-varying
gravity from an atomic gradiometer on a singlesatellite
platform
