Аннотация: Ionosat-Micro is a fundamental scientific project devoted to the study of near-Earth. The project is conceived as an answer to the challenges posed by the modern development of knowledge about Space Weather and the ionospheric responses to surface energy sources (such as weather phenomena, power lines operation, earthquakes and processes of their preparation, powerful technogenic hazards, etc.). The project is being prepared with the support and within the framework of The National Space Program of Ukraine and The Program of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine for Scientific Space Research. The article outlines the scientific principles of the project, describes the parameters of the space system being created, and the composition and operation logic of the scientific equipment. The project is planned to be implemented on board specially designed scientific satellite launched on circular, sun-synchronous orbit in the LST range of 10:00–11:00, with inclination 98 degree and altitude of 600–700 km (orbital parameters, method and date of the launch TBD). Ionosat-Micro scientific toolkit is intended to achieve the goal of the project by registration: 1) the global structure and physical parameters of the neutral atmosphere and the plasma, 2) the structure and parameters of the space current systems and geomagnetic field, 3) the ULF-ELF-VLF electromagnetic waves.
