Article Description

Small satellites have the potential to advance space technology at a fraction of the cost and time of traditional large-scale spacecraft. Unfortunately, due to the volume constraint of miniaturized satellites, microscale spacecraft often lack the payload and bus space to support complex missions. Bandit/Akoya utilizes distributed design with a plug-and-play platform to perform proximity operations and rapid integration of two microscale vehicles and a host - all under 35 kg. Students are directly responsible for all program elements.
