Small Missions for Advanced Research in Technology (SMART) was a European Space Agency programme for building technology demonstrator space probes and testing them in outer space as space missions.

SMART missions include:

  • SMART-1, a mission to test electric rockets, by using Hall-effect thrusters
  • SMART-2 LISA Pathfinder, a mission to test the feasibility of formation flying multiple satellites for precision laser measurement, for use as a gravity wave detector
