LituanicaSAT-2 (LS-2) Telemetry.
LituanicaSAT-2, Active with strong beacon.
Following the success of the Lithuanian satellite mission LituanicaSAT-1, NanoAvionics together with Vilnius University took another ambitious step by launching LituanicaSAT-2 satellite. LituanicaSAT-2 is a 3U CubeSat intended for the scientific mission of the “QB50” – a constellation of 50 CubeSats. The “QB50” project is led by the Von Karman Institute (VKI) for fluid dynamics (Belgium), under the European Commission’s research and innovation program FP7 (2007-2013). The project involves 50 institutions all over the world each building their CubeSats that were launched into space during the “QB50” mission.
The scientific aim of “QB50” is to carry out atmospheric research within the lower thermosphere (altitude between 200 and 500 km), which is the least explored layer of the atmosphere.
Despite direct “QB50” aim, LituanicaSAT-2 mission is particularly important for NanoAvionics, because the innovative propulsion system prototype for small satellites developed by NanoAvionics was tested during this mission. The test was run successfully
