All 50 CubeSats may be launched together on a single Cyclone-4 launch vehicle in February 2016. [3] The Request for Proposals (RFP) for the QB50 CubeSat was released on February 15, 2012. AAU CubeSat , by Aalborg University : The Danish students in this project, beginning in the summer of 2001, designed a satellite that would evaluate the ...
This is a list of spacecraft deployed from the International Space Station.The International Space Station deploys spacecraft using the JEM Small Satellite Orbital Deployer (J-SSOD), the Nanoracks CubeSat Deployer (NRCSD), Space Station Integrated Kinetic Launcher for Orbital Payload Systems (SSIKLOPS), or the Nauka MLM experiments airlock module.
Since CubeSats are deployed by P-PODs and similar deployment systems, they can be integrated and launched into virtually any launch vehicle. However, some launch service providers refuse to launch CubeSats, whether on all launches or only on specific launches, two examples as of 2015 were ILS and Sea Launch. [116]
PREFIRE is composed of two CubeSats fitted with specialized miniature heat sensors. The launch date for the second satellite will be announced shortly after the launch of the first satellite, NASA ...
SNIPE (Small scale magNetospheric and Ionospheric Plasma Experiments, Korean: 도요샛) is a CubeSat of South Korea. SNIPE 1, 2, 3, and 4 were launched with the third launch of Nuri on May 25, 2023. There is a plan to conduct joint research with NASA using data observed by SNIPE.
Hayasat-1 (in Armenian: Հայասաթ-1) is an Armenian nano-satellite developed by Bazoomq Space Research Laboratory and CSIE (Center for Scientific Innovation and Education) in the CubeSat format. It is the second Armenian satellite to be launched into orbit, but the first one designed and created entirely by Armenians.
On 23 November 2022, NASA awarded the launch of the remaining CubeSats to Rocket Lab, with the launches to be performed by two Electron rockets starting in May 2023. The first of the two Rocket Lab launches successfully took place on 8 May 2023 at 01:00 UTC. [1] The second and final launch took place on 26 May 2023 at 03:46 UTC. [22]
ArgoMoon is a CubeSat that was launched into a heliocentric orbit on Artemis 1, the maiden flight of the Space Launch System, on 16 November 2022 at 06:47:44 UTC. [1] [2] The objective of the ArgoMoon spacecraft is to take detailed images of the Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage following Orion separation, an operation that will demonstrate the ability of a cubesat to conduct precise ...
