TechEdSat 9 (Technical and Educational Satellite 9) is a 3U CubeSat. It was built as a conjoined project between San Jose State University (SJSU) and the University of Idaho as a collaborative engineering project, with oversight from the NASA Ames Research Center.
The TechEdSAT-9 will test automatic deorbiting using the Exo-Brake system.
A launch opportunity has not yet been announced, although a launch on the maiden flight of Virgin Orbit's LauncherOne was considered.
