This is the thread for members here to inform each other about their CubeSAT projects.I founded a company based on CubeSATS (Nanoracks).So, are you working on a CubeSAT project?
a web site to see and follow your project.
50 years of electronics miniaturization may enable such a project. Are you more interested in particular measurements or planning to duplicate the whole suite?Wondering if the dust detector was a function of the cameras and image analysis of the Martian atmosphere or if they had a dedicated sensor for dust in the immediate vicinity of the spacecraft.http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/spacecraftDisplay.do?id=1964-077A
Hey all, Was wondering if there were any opportunities for a secondary payload on a cubesat. I don't have the money to launch my own cubesat, but was investigating launching just a small sensor into orbit on a cubesat. Thanks

ThanksI would sent off an email to some of the teams developing CubeSat projects. However, I suspect that the costs of integrating your sensor into someone else's project would be greater than simply developing your own payload.
