CubeSat Development

CubeSat Development refers to the process of designing, building, and testing CubeSats, which are a class of small satellites typically made up of multiple units called “U” (10x10x10 cm), allowing for standardized modularity. This development involves various phases including conceptual design, engineering, integration, and launch readiness. Engineers and scientists work on the spacecraft’s payload, communication systems, power management, and structural integrity to ensure functionality in space. CubeSats are often used for educational, research, and technology demonstration purposes due to their lower cost and shorter development timelines compared to traditional satellites. With advances in technology, CubeSat Development has become an important area in space exploration, allowing for innovative applications such as Earth observation, space science experiments, and even interplanetary missions.
