STPSat 1 is an experimental spacecraft for STP (Space Test Program), which hosted several experiments. The 3-axis stabilized spacecraft is built by AeroAstro.

FalconSat-3 is the 3rd student-built microsatellite demonstration mission of the USAFA (United States Air Force Academy), Colorado Springs, CO, USA. The objective is to demonstrate innovative, highly-efficient boom deployment technology. Work on the FalconSat-3 project started in 2002.

MidSTAR-1 is the first implementation of the MidSTAR-1 mod 1 bus design. It has been commissioned by STP to carry the Internet Communications Satellite (ICSat) Experiment for SSP and the Configurable Fault Tolerant Processor (CFTP) Experiment for Naval Postgraduate School (NPS).

Los Alamos is building the CFESat (Cibola Flight Experiment Satellite), a reconfigurable processor payload intended for a low-Earth orbit system. It will survey portions of the VHF and UHF radio spectra. The experiment uses networks of reprogrammable, field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) to process the received signals for ionospheric and lightning studies. The objective is to detect and measure impulsive events that occur in a complex background.

Ball Aerospace provided the NEXTSat/CSC (Next Generation Satellite and Commodities spacecraft) and ground support, reinforce mission operations, and supply components for the Autonomous Space Transfer and Robotic Orbiter (ASTRO) spacecraft.

The unique Orbital Express advanced technology demonstrator has the capability to safely and autonomously service and refuel satellites while onorbit. The Boeing team built the ASTRO (Autonomous Space Transport Robotic Operations satellite), and a surrogate next generation serviceable satellite, NEXTSat/CSC, and conducted an on orbit demonstration of autonomous satellite servicing.
