The radar component for a CubeSat is being sent to study asteroid Dimorphos has been delivered to ESA for integration with its spacecraft.

NASA announced the end of the LunaH-Map satellite that was supposed to map ice at the south pole of the moon. While the mission missed its mark, a key instrument performed well.

Students from the University of Saskatchewan have sent their own satellite into space. The students involved worked for five years on their RADSAT-SK CubeSat.

Very good, great. what i still find amazing is that as well as the normal big satellites that weve all seen being launched into space, this is also a satellite these days. its called a cubesat, it comes with popout solar panels and what you do is you pack these into the empty space around the big satellites in the rocket when they go up. so suddenly you dont need to buy your own rocket to get something like this into space. you can put whatever you want inside one of these things but they come w...

As well as the normal big satellites that weve all seen being launched into space, this is also a satellite these days. its called a cubesat, it comes with pop—out solar panels and what you do is, you pack these into the empty space around the big satellites in the rocket when they grow up. so suddenly you dont need to buy your own rocket to get something like this into space. you can put whatever you want inside one of these things but they come with some standard kit, like solar powered batt...

The cloud in space, right? very good, great. what i still find amazing is that as well as the normal big satellites that weve all seen being launched into space, this is also a satellite these days. its called a cubesat, it comes with popout solar panels and what you do is you pack these into the empty space around the big satellites in the rocket when they grow up. so suddenly you dont need to buy your own rocket to get something like this into space. you can put whatever you want inside one of...

Yeah, right. yeah, right, yeah. what i still find amazing is that as well as the normal big satellites that weve all seen being launched into space, this is also a satellite these days. its called a cubesat, comes with pop out solar panels. and what you do is you pack these into the empty space around the big satellites in the rocket when they go up. so suddenly, you dont need to buy your own rocket to get something like this into space. now you can put whatever you want inside one of these thin...

Five satellites — roughly the size of a Rubik’s cube — created by Canadian university students will each carry out a separate space mission that will last one to two years.
