A program to develop an advanced satellite health and status monitoring subsystem for detecting and discriminating hostile threats is described. The threats considered are laser, radio frequency, and x-rays. The subsystem uses lightweight electronics and sensors that are imbedded in the satellite structure to minimize the integration impact on the host satellite. The sensor materials are described. The first of a series of flight experiments is also described.
