Mission Details
Gaofen 1
Gaofen 1 (Chinese: 高分一号; pinyin: Gāofēn Yī hào; lit. 'high resolution - number 1') is a Chinese high-resolution Earth observation satellite and the first of the Gaofen series satellites.
Türksat-3USat
Türksat-3USat is a Turkish communications nanosatellite developed by the Space Systems Design and Test Laboratory and Radio Frequency Electronics Laboratory of Istanbul Technical University (ITU) in collaboration with the Türksat company along with the Turkish Amateur Satellite Technology Organization (TAMSAT).
Started with a protocol signed on 29 November 2010, TurkSat-3USat is a follow-up project based on the ITUpSAT1 mission, which was launched on 23 September 2009.
NEE-01 Pegaso
NEE-01 Pegaso was an Ecuadorian technology demonstration satellite, and Ecuador's first satellite launched into space. Built by the Ecuadorian Civilian Space Agency (EXA), it is a nanosatellite of the single-unit CubeSat class. The spacecraft's instruments include a dual visible and infrared camera which allows the spacecraft to take pictures and transmit live video from space.
CubeBug-1
The CubeBug-1 2U CubeSat, also known as El Capitán Beto, is the first technology demonstration mission for a new cubesat platform design (mechanics, hardware and software) intended to be released as Open Source and Open Hardware for its use in Amateur projects, University projects and research labs. This project is sponsored by the Argentinian Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation, INVAP S.E., Satellogic S.A., and Radio Club Bariloche.
As payload on this first mission, some custom designed components for the BugSat earth observation satellites were tested: an ARM based on-board computer, a nano-reaction wheel with its driver circuit and a low resolution camera, all based on COTS components.
After the technology demonstration part of the mission is over, the satellite will enter a mode that will include services to the Amateur radio community, including a Digipeater and science data downloads from the payload.
