 +The GRID is a student-driven space-borne project with the goal to detect gamma-ray transients in the energy range of 10 keV to 2 MeV.  GRID is composed of a constellation of CubeSats (with an all-sky coverage) deployed in low earth orbit.  
 + 
 +The scientific motivation(s) of GRID are:  
 +  * Detection of gamma-rays associated with GW events 
 +  * Network based GRB monitor (general purpose analyses) 
 +  * Search/identification of Magnetars 
 +  * TGFs 
 +  * Training students how to develop, lead and organize within collaboration 
 + 
 +Below is a list of CubeSats launched as part of the GRID constellation.
