14-BISat (QB50 BR01)
14-BISat [CRESEA]
14-BISat is a Brazilian 2U-CubeSat designed and produced by CRESEA (Centro de Referência em Sistemas Embarcados e Aeroespaciais) in collaboration with TEKEVER of Portugal. The mission participates in the QB50 project.
It carries the FIPEX (Flux-Φ-Probe Experiment) of TU Dresden as the primary payload for the QB50 project, which is able to distinguish and measure the time-resolved behaviour of atomic and molecular oxygen as a key parameter of the lower thermosphere.
The QB50 project, which demonstrates the possibility of launching a network of 50 CubeSats built by Universities Teams all over the world to perform first-class science in the largely unexplored lower thermosphere.
Additionally, it carries the GAMALINK payload for testing an inter-satellite network with other GAMALINK equipped QB50 CubeSats like GAMASAT 1.
The satellite will be launched with the bulk of the QB50 constellation to the ISS in 2017, from where they will be deployed.
