  • Abstract
    The Compact Environmental Anomaly Sensor (CEASE) is an instrument designed to provide real-time space environment hazard warnings to the host spacecraft. In this paper, we report on the first year of on-orbit operation of this instrument and describe its performance with particular emphasis on its engineering, hazard-warning function
