Project Imua Mission 10 involves the development of a small payload that carries an improved sublimation rocket (ScubeR) with camphor fuel that is to be deployed at apogee. Mobius video and still photo cameras will monitor ScubeR flight after deployment. In additio, the payload includes two IMUs as well as a gyroscopi sensor and magnetometer. An Artemis CubeSat, which was providerd by UH Manaoa's Hawaii Space Flight Lab (HSFL), has also been integrated onto the payload deck as a proof-of-flight test. The Mission 10 team, includes students from Honolulu Community College, Windward Community College and Assets High Schoo, is participated in CoSGC's RockSat-X 2022 program. Mission 10's payload is scheduled for launch into space on a sub-orbital trajectory from NASA Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia in August 2022.
