FIELD: space industry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to small-size research binary spacecraft (hereinafter – BSC) designed for searching and collecting nanoscale objects of extraterrestrial origin that have accumulated in cosmic dust structures located near libration points (Lagrange points). The BSC contains the first and second containers, two panel-shaped cases, in the centers of the ends of which there are telescopic rods with a controlled angle of inclination, on which two multi-vector matrix rocket engines (hereinafter – MMRE) are placed for scanning dust structures, deploying and folding a flexible solar battery (hereinafter – SB) with planar micro-containers placed on both sides for storing nano-objects collected on the surfaces of rigid micro-substrates using an electric field. Sealing of the collected nano-objects is carried out by sealing planar micro-containers with two sealing membranes on both sides of the SB with simultaneous folding into a roll of the SB, transported to Earth for research using fluorescent and electronic microscopes.
EFFECT: provided is possibility of an ordered, active collection of particles in the nanoscale range using an electric field and subsequent conveyor sealing of the collected nano-objects when scanning the vicinity of the libration points of planets making the Solar System.
