Demonstrate “standard model” of 6U satellite bus.

Description

This mission utilizes the “standard model” of our 6U satellite bus system, which includes core functions of the satellite, built-in IoT communication capabilities, along with a customizable vertical mission section of over 3U.

The mission module of AE1c will carry components from the customer of our hosted payload service, with an in-orbit demonstration of the payload planned.

Following the AE1b, the second in-orbit operation of “standard model” will focus on data collection and operational refinement, paving the way for a stable and scalable rollout of our hosted payload service.
