Demonstrate CubeSat platform, take photos and amateur radio mission.

Description

Take landscape images from space. Primary objective of the Reaktor software company at this stage is mainly to learn more about the activities of the satellites and the opportunities it offers.

The satellite will provide a beacon and telemetry data for which amateur satellite users and ham radio users will be able to receive.

Test the capabilities of reusable flight platform, which consists of radio module, onboard computer, Power Supply Unit, ADCS (Attitude Determination and Control System), Antenna deployment system.

Take and transmit pictures on request to the ground.

Lower the barrier of creating software to space by increasing the abstraction level.

Notes

Reaktor and the team which has worked on satellite projects of Aalto University have founded new startup, Reaktor Space Lab, which will focus on planning, building and testing small satellites.
