Nanosatellite Science Applications
2002The notion of a “nanosat” or satellite in the range of 1 to 10 kg is not new. In fact, some of the very earliest satellites were technically “nanosats”. These were barely functional but did demonstrate that artificial satellites were feasible. Driven by the belief that bigger is better, spacecraft grew larger and larger for the next thirty years ...

Nanosatellite Conceptual Design
2005Abstract This chapter integrates the information presented earlier by illustrating the fundamentals of the conceptual design of a simplified spacecraft mission. A conceptual design is the initial step in the description of a space system in which the overall mission requirements are defined, the mission is described, a concept of ...

Stecco, a laser ranged nanosatellite
2020The Space Traveling Egg-Controlled Catadioptric Object (STECCO) is a 30 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm PocketQube nanosatellite to be launched in 2020. Its shape and the presence of a passive viscous damper shall allow gravity gradient stabilization of the satellite, with one of the two smaller faces pointing toward nadir.
