Abstract-In this paper we propose an instrument which is based on a similar payload developed in the framework of the MIOSAT mission of the Italian Space Agency. The instrument is designed on the basis of the following goals: low coast, modularity, plug and play capability, and it should have both wide spectral and spatial range coverage. It will be therefore developed following a modular concept in order to achieve a hyperspectral imager working from visible near infrared up to thermal infrared region.
