An international network of 50 CubeSats for multi-point, in-situ measurements in the lower thermosphere and re-entry research (QB50)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
The QB50 Project will demonstrate the possibility of launching a network of 50 CubeSats built by CubeSat teams from all over the world to perform first-class science and in-orbit demonstration in the largely unexplored middle and lower thermosphere. Space agencies are currently not pursuing a multi-spacecraft network for in-situ measurements in the middle and lower thermosphere because the cost of ...

Piezoelectric Assisted Smart Satellite Structure (PEASSS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
The main objective of the PEASSS project is to develop, manufacture, test and qualify “smart structures” which combine composite panels, piezoelectric materials, and next generation sensors, for autonomously improved pointing accuracy and power generation in space. The smart panels will enable fine angle control, and thermal and vibration compensation, improving all types of future Earth observat ...

De-Orbiting of Satellites using Solar Sails (DEORBIT SAIL)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,
The goal of this project is to develop and flight test a novel, low cost/riskdeorbiting device based on a 25-m squared Solar Sail with a total mass (including the satellite platform) of 3 kg. The approach will be to modify Solar Sail deployment technology for use as a satellite and/or rocket upper stage deorbiting system. The effectiveness of such deorbiting device is predicted to be high at altit ...
