1.1 CubeSat Mission Design
Overview
All satellites require a mission and missions can fall under many categories: Camera observation, engineering prototype, scientific experimentation, art, communication -- perhaps others. The NSS CubeSat program begins with the idea of a mission. Students begin with the question: What do they want to learn?
