CanSat
Our participation in the prestigious international CanSat competition represented an unprecedented opportunity to test our engineering skills and creativity in simulated space exploration.
CanSat, a competition aimed at universities around the world, challenged us to conceive, design, build and launch a working planetary probe that authentically and autonomously simulates atmospheric re-entry.
Through this project, we immersed ourselves in a complete space mission experience, addressing every aspect from initial planning to the launch phase and beyond.
Our team has dedicated months of hard work and effort to address the unique technical challenges of this competition. From the design of the navigation and control systems to the creation of the hardware and software components necessary for the operation of the probe.
Furthermore, we have integrated advanced sensors and complex algorithms to ensure total autonomy during the simulation of atmospheric re-entry.
PicoSat
The PicoSat project represents a space exploration challenge, focused on the design and construction of a 5U PocketQube, intended to serve as the scientific payload for a supersonic sounding rocket. This ambitious initiative saw us engaged in the entire development process, from initial conception to the creation of a functioning and reliable satellite.
The PocketQube 5U, made using latest generation composite materials, has been designed to withstand the extreme conditions of space, while ensuring maximum lightness and structural resistance. In addition to robustness, we have paid particular attention to the creation of a controlled internal environment, capable of maintaining constant atmosphere and temperature, which are fundamental for the correct functioning of our scientific experiments.
Sidereus
The Sidereus FlatSat project represents an important initiative in space technology, focused on the development of a dedicated FlatSat designed to be integrated on board the EOS launcher, designed by Sidereus Space Dynamics. This collaboration aims to measure the electromagnetic field inside the payload bay during the crucial phase of the Green Run and the first sub-orbital flight of the EOS launcher.
The FlatSat, conceived as a flat and compact satellite, was precisely designed to adapt to the specific integration and functionality needs of the EOS launcher.
One of the main challenges faced during the development of the FlatSat was the optimization of dimensions and materials, in order to ensure trouble-free installation and optimal performance within the launcher’s payload compartment.
