      abstract     = {TUBIN is a microsatellite mission tasked with the
                      demonstration of microbolometer technology for the detection
                      of high-temperature events. To this end, the spacecraft
                      employs a set of two microbolometers sensitive in the
                      thermal range of the electromagnetic spectrum as well as a
                      complementary CMOS-based imager for the visible spectrum.
                      Additionally, the mission serves to demonstrate the upgraded
                      capabilities of the TUBiX20 microsatellite platform after
                      its initial implementation within the TechnoSat mission,
                      launched in 2017. Here, the platform was upgraded with star
                      trackers for enhanced attitude determination to enable the
                      pointing accuracy required by the mission. Launched in June
                      2021, TUBIN has already successfully detected wildfires and
                      volcanic activity in different biomes across the globe.
                      Additionally, the sensor suite of the TUBIN mission was
                      applied to examine its capabilities in the assessment of
                      light-pollution in dedicated night time imaging campaigns.
                      In this paper, we present and analyze data sets captured in
                      the first six months of operation to illustrate
                      capabilities, accomplishments, and challenges regarding
                      payload operation, calibration, and data analysis for the
                      TUBIN mission. Finally, the plans for the second half of
                      TUBIN’s nominal lifetime are outlined, including an
                      on-orbit calibration campaign and increased automation in
                      payload operations.},
