GOMX 1
GOMX 1 [GOMSpace]
GOMX-1 is a student built amateur radio 2U CubeSat. The mission is being flown under the auspices of a Government research grant covering space related radio research. It will qualify a number of subsystems and provide extensive in-flight data.
The mission will also test the use of the open source Cubesat Space Protocol for a complete mission including the space link.
A camera payload will take color images of the Earth and an experimental Software Defined Radio receiver will be carried and its performance characterized.
More than 15 students at Aalborg University have been actively involved in the development of this payload as part of their semester projects.
