There’s a key milestone in the development of a satellite: integration. π°β
π Join ISTSat-1 and Β³Cat-4 #student teams as they integrate their satellites with the deployer in preparation for launch this summer!
π This exciting experience is part of our Fly Your Satellite! programme, which gives tertiary education students the chance to design, build, test and launch a #satellite.
A team of university students from University College Dublin is taking Ireland to space, for the very first time. The story begins in 2017, when the team was accepted to ESA’s educational CubeSat programme, Fly Your Satellite! Over the course of six years, they have designed, built, and tested the satellite with the help of ESA experts and with access to ESA’s state-of-the-art spacecraft testing facilities. As the team prepares for launch and operations, hear more about their journey to this historic moment.
