Educational mission with drag chute for deorbiting.
|
| Description |
- Evaluation of satellite body which made by Integral molding in space environment.
- Evaluation of performance and functions of a test body in space environment.
- Establishment of base technology about the super lightweight space structure technology that is necessary for future supersized space structure.
- Encouraging the talent carrying the next generation by an activity student mainly participate in as a part of a research of university education.
- Offer the opportunity of satellite tracking and operation for ham operators and amateur astronomers, and contribute to improvement of satellite communication technic ( 1 )
Minimum success Establish communication between satellite and earth station.
Full success:
- Measure strain and temperature of satellite body.
- Announce the command to turn on the LED mounted on the satellite to amateur radio stations which use that frequency band Provide a satellite operation experience.
- Receive messages from general amateur radio stations which use that frequency band. Save it to memory. Downlink the messages few times.
- Recruit the message and we uplink it from command station. Downlink the messages few times.
- Extend and unfold a contained drag chute.
- Let down the altitude of orbit by using drag chute which suffer air resistance.
