RainCube (Radar In a CubeSat), developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and launched in 2018, was a technology demonstration supported by NASA. RainCube’s radar is the first spaceborne profiling radar fitting on a platform as small as a 6U ( $10\times 20\times 30\,\,\mathrm {cm^{3}}$ ) CubeSat. This article shows how, despite its smaller size compared to traditional spaceborne radars, RainCube was able to measure clouds and precipitation in the mid-latitude and intertropical regions. Moreover, since RainCube’s measurements are oversampled in the along-track (AT) direction, the horizontal resolution can be enhanced by a robust Wiener deconvolution algorithm. After more than two and a half years of operation, the RainCube mission came to an end on 24 December 2020. The collected record of Ka-band radar profiles compares favorably to collocated measurements from other ground-based and spaceborne radars both radiometrically and geophysically. The examples of multiradar collocations also provide some insights into the potential of constellations of spaceborne radars to study clouds and storms.
