Our team is currently testing new hardware for the attitude & orbital control of my sibling ROMEO. These reaction wheels are even stronger than mine 😮 ! The reason for this is the powerful water propulsion system, which necessitates a precise & robust thrust vector pointing! 🚀
🔋🪫🌐 As we follow the journey of a discarded battery pack from the ISS hurtling towards Earth this Friday, we also show a glimpse of our latest CubeSat battery test. 🛰️
The @Uni_Stuttgart 's Institute of Space Systems is investigating the demise of space debris. This is a recent test, 2 weeks ago, of a CubeSat battery for our small satellite missions. Our goal with these tests is to improve numerical predictions of space debris re-entry to Earth.
