PHI-Demo [MBRSC]
The PHI-Demo satellite is a 12U CubeSat developed by the Mohammend Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC) in Dubai as a technology demonstration program in which MBRSC aims to demonstrate a new modular bus designed in-house by MBRSC engineers.
PHI-demo is hosting OQ Tech's cutting-edge IoT communication payload that utilizes 5G technology. The data will be shared and demonstrated to various entities on the ground.
In addition, PHI-demo is hosting SteamJet Space Systems' water-fueled propulsion system Steam Thruster One, a new technology that is expected to be safe, green, and efficient for small satellites.
