CubeSX-HSE / CubeSX-Sirius-HSE

CubeSX-HSE / CubeSX-Sirius-HSE [SPUTNIX]

CubeSX-HSE and CubeSX-Sirius-HSE are Russian 3U CubeSats developed by SPUTNIX.

CubeSX-HSE is the first satellite of High School of Economics “NIU VShE — DZZ”. The NRU HSE earth observation spacecraft has been developed through joint efforts by the Moscow Institute of Electronics and Mathematics (MIEM) and SPUTNIX. The 3U CubeSat is equipped with an experimental camera based on the stepped (Fresnel) lenses developed by the Samara University, and with a high-speed X-range transmitter. MIEM students were responsible for qualification of the satellite’s control systems.

CubeSX-Sirius-HSE is a 3U CubeSat of Sirius Center and NRU HSE. The spacecraft is equipped with an improved DeCor-type instrument to monitor quick changes in the space radiation fluxes. Researchers from the Sirius University and the Moscow University’s Scientific and Research Institute of Nuclear Physics are in charge of the project’s scientific component – handling the space radiation detector and mission’s mathematical algorithms.

CubeSX-HSE 2 is a small spacecraft of the CubeSat format of the HSE, built on the OrbiCraft-Pro 3U platform of the SPUTNIX (part of the Sitronics Group) within the framework of the SPACE-p project with the support of the FASIE fund. The spacecraft consists of three units built on a single frame. One of the units holds the propulsion system, the second includes all boards for the satellite's operation, and the third carries the payload - an experimental camera for remote sensing of the Earth and the Automatic Identification System (IAS) for monitoring ships at sea. The satellite will monitor the Earth's surface in the Arctic region, and will also be part of a tracking system for ship movement along the Northern Sea Route. The satellite control systems will be tested by the Moscow Institute of Electronics and Mathematics (MIEM) staff and students.
