Sawa is a future space weather mission for monitoring Earth's thermosphere and magnetic field, under development by the European Space Agency's Space Safety Programme (S2P). Sawa will be the second space weather nanosatellite of ESA's Distributed Space Weather Sensor System (D3S). It is designed to provide observations complementing the first D3S mission, SWING. The spacecraft, based on the HyperSat platform, will include three instruments developed by the Space Research Center of the Polish Academy of Sciences and one by the Wrocław University of Science and Technology. The mission's primary contractor is the Polish company Creotech Instruments SA. It is expected to launch in 2028.
