Research History

TEST Satellite TEST Satellite

Test stands for Thunderstorm Effects in Space Technology. Test was a Nanosatellite based on cube construction. Test was a finalist in the NS3 Competition. In order to create such a successful endeavor, TU students built on the previous models of satellites completed by graduated students. Test implemented freewave radios. TEST provided the inspiration for the cube based design of the BUSAT Satellite which Taylor and Boston University are currently developing. To learn more about the TEST project click here.
