The experiments must fit within a Cubesat, a 10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm module. It’s an opportunity to use off-the-shelf technology to design projects kits that students can build and see them actually get into space. Imagine: Arduinos in space. (There has already been one Arduino sent into space.) [...]

Tough it is tempting at times, I learned to fight the urges off.

I am currently working on a site with more detailed info about the payloads.
When it is finished I will post the link here and on the forums.
I hope to finish by the end of the week.

The website listed in the article is all the info that can be released for now. The website will be updated when I can get more info out. I’m busy with building more satellites.

We are proposing another student satellite so Arduino will be part of the development effort. With Arduino now supporting the Atmega1280 with four serial ports, Arduino may be used for flight software development on the flight computer also known as the Command/Telemetry Data Handler.

David (Shutter) is a pretty bright kid. He will either be a significant contributor to society or an evil genius.

Oh and I keep forgetting. This link to a cansat kit now uses Arduino for the software development. When I get a chance, I’ll work up a website with details plus schematics. Cansat is an educational tool for teaching basic satellite design and operations. Students assemble the kit, write the flight software, and launch it on a high power rocket. The cansat pops at peak altitude and floats down on a parachute. The time in the air simulates an orbital pass. Telemetry is transmitted during the flight.

For all the amateur radio folks, the satellites will transmit on 145.825 MHz. Pollux will transmit every 33 seconds while Castor every 30 seconds.

Some questions I could not answer are answered in here. I have been trying to get Ivan to post the info myself.

I work for stensat/stenlight currently. Being 17 I have a lot to learn.
P.S.
I introduced stensat to arduino. When they opened up the project up to the school and herd we are using avr cores I asked if they herd of arduino.
