The Command & Data Handling Subsystem (CDH for short) is the “brain” of our satellite, so to speak. It collects and manages sensor and housekeeping data and commands the other subsystems. For our balloon mission, the CDH subsystem will have no “C”, i.e. no command handling part as our balloon will only be able to […]

Hey everyone!  This is the EPS design team of MOVE speaking, we wanted to introduce you the system we designed: EPS stands for electrical power supply so we are responsible for everything related to power on the satellite. This starts with the solar cells which will generate the power on MOVE-III and includes our battery […]

According to NASA a space project is divided into seven phases beginning with concept studies and ending with the decommissioning. In order to enter the next phase, milestones are defined which typically come along with a document explaining how this milestone is achieved. It is then reviewed by experts to receive feedback e.g. where are […]
