CubeSat Camp Portland5
Campers will use programmable sensor packages and 3D printed cases to build their own CubeSat modules. CubeSats are designed to be nanosatellites similar to the 1200 CubeSats that have gone into space. Each CubeSat is 10cm x 10cm x 10cm and contains a sensor pack, controller, power supply, and data storage unit. Campers will design sensor missions and perform bench testing, with a weather-permitting field trip to Skydive New England Airport in Lebanon, Maine for high-altitude data collection at 14,000 feet. Campers keep their CubeSats and can continue programming them. Note: Possible 35% cost increase due to 2025 tariffs on electronics equipment.
