Ground to space communications with and command and control of Ut Pro Sat 1 cubesat.

Start Date: 12/02/2025
End Date: 12/01/2026

Ut ProSat 1 is a 3U CubeSat built by the Center for Space Science and Engineering Research at Virginia Tech (VT).

[...]

UPS-1 Mission Objectives:
1. Demonstrate payload experimental boom deployment system and downlink required telemetry and experimental data for payload validation.
2. Demonstrate scalable and expandable avionics and experimental platform adhering to CubeSat standards as per CubeSat CDS Rev.13. Adhere to launch vehicle integration requirements with the XTENTI CubeSat Dispenser.
3. Establish reliable UHF communications with the ground station network for primary Command and Control (C2) and mission data download.

[...]

The satellite will be launched as a secondary payload aboard New Glenn (Blue Origin), name of launch TBD, possibly Elytra-1/FR-1 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station (CCSFS), FL no earlier than (NET) 29 Aug 2025 into a circular orbit at approximately 54±1 deg inclination, 470 km altitude. Transmission will begin approximately 30 minutes after deployment, and cease when thermal buildup consumes the spacecraft during re-entry. The total spacecraft mass is 4.9kg with a volume of 10.7cm x 11.1cm x 36.7cm in the stowed configuration.
