About Clyde Space and UKube-1 cubesat I took a look at some payloads proposed for UKube-1. I am not impressed. Especially Clyde Space came with a proposal that has been in the mind of any cubesat designer since they appeared in history. You can buy from the market a High/Medium...

There is a small debate (see: Ordinary mobile phones as cubesat transceivers?! ) regarding the use of phones in space as a communication tool with satellites. However, it looks like they can not be used for this purpose. This experiment with the Android mobile phone try just to see if such a...

There is a Cubesat forum (see the links): http://cubesat.ifastnet.com/forum http://cubesat.ifastnet.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=1 Take a look at it and ask questions there. Somebody will help you.

1. I know that the cubesat together with other picosats will be launched as secondary payloads from a main sun synchronous satellite using something like a spring powered cannon (see This) that can accelerate the the picosat to a relative speed no greater than 1 m/s. 2. I am trying to maximize...

1) I am mostly concerned about keeping a cubesat as long as possible in a Sun Syncronous Polar Dusk/Dawn orbit. If I understand well this is the only Sun Syncronous orbit that keeps the satellite always in the path of the Sun light. 2) I reached your forum simply by searching the internet using...

Thank you for the information. Also, that article from Wikipedia was very instructive. It looks like a Sun Syncronous Orbit means, in general, that the satellite passes above the same parallel, always, at the same solar local time. A particular type of sun synchronous orbit would be when the...

Does a cubesat satellite in a Sun-Synchronous Orbit always see the Sun and never get into the shadow of the Earth? Currently I am working at a CubeSat picosatelitte (school project) I have asked the question above on a site specialized in CubeSats but they are slow and I do not expect an answer...
