Deep Space CubeSat

We are excited to announce that we are leading the development of the first ever Deep Space STEM Curriculum geared towards high school students! We are currently on track to have our experiment launched as part of the first deep space CubeSat mission on NASA's Artemis-I.

 

​​Deep Space exploration with CubeSat technology is one of our primary goals. CubeSats are revolutionizing Deep Space exploration by introducing financial practicality to satellite exploration, and we plan on being on the frontlines of this new innovation!

 

How do we enter Deep Space?

Destination SPACE joined forces with Miles Space, winner of NASA's CubeSat Quest Challenge.

Team Miles, a team of self-taught friends from Florida, is dedicating a section of their CubeSat to STEM.


Destination SPACE, Inc. is taking the lead on the STEM mission. Two of our former ThinSat students, now Destination SPACE interns, are working for Team Miles! These students will serve as mentors on the Deep Space CubeSat Mission.

Some of the STEM sensors onboard this CubeSat are:

  • Temperature sensors (inside and outside)

  • Plasma probe

  • Magnetometers

  • Grid-EYE infrared camera

  • PIN diode particle detector (interior and exterior)

  • Electron flux sensor

Data from these sensors will be available after the launch!
