HAUSAT 2
HAUSAT 2 [Hankuk Aviation University]
HAUSAT-2 (Hankuk Aviation University SATellite 2) was the second satellite developed at Hankuk Aviation University.
The objective of HAUSAT 2 was to demonstrate several technologies. The spacecraft incorporated a Plug-and-Play type BEU (Bus Electronic Unit) that combines all subsystem and payload electronics into one electronics box.
The payload consisted of:
- Animal Tracking System (ATS)
- Electric Plasma Probe (EPP)
- Total Ionizing Dose Meter (TIDM)
- Star Tracker (ST)
- GPS Receiver (GPSR)
The satellite was originally to be launched in 2008 or 2009. But eventually, although the satellite was completed, it was never launched.
