Description	12U Upcoming tech-demo in development, with 12U Exo-Brake validation. TechEdSat-16, projected to launch in early 2024, will fly the Kapaho Bay Revision ‘B’ module, which is designed to alleviate several of the issues found with the original experimental model. This hardware-improved module uses the same first generation Loihi as the TES-13 experiment, but the Kapaho Bay USB host is designed to be more tolerant to temperature fluctuations compared to the previous revision.
