| Résumé : |
Small satellites provide a responsive alternative to larger, more expensive satellites. As the demand grows, engineers must adapt these "nanosatellites", or CubeSats, to accomplish new achivements and goals. One of these achievements is to deploy TubeSats, a new type of cylindrically-shapped nanosatellites not much bigger than an ordinary beverage can, from the International Space Station (ISS). Due to their cylindrical shape, TubeSats are not compatible with the normal CubeSats deployer platform (P-POD) on the ISS. An innovative nano-satellite, TuPOD (TubeSat-POD), was developed to address the challenge. |
