The second of the research probes to be launched as part of the Inner Atos System Survey, the IASS-00P1 was deployed on 36/1/35 PSSC on a mission to gather geographic and atmospheric data relating to the Pyrotian surface, and to investigate the possibility of life or the potential for settlement on Pyros. Foremost among the missions of the IASS-00P1 is to gather enough data to allow researchers to compile a detailed map of the planet.
IASS-00P1 is expected to arrive in orbit around Pyros around the middle of the year 37 PSSC. The probe, which is designed to orbit Pyros at a distance of around 440,000 km from the planet, will collect data for at least four years.
