There are a million little things needed to make a functioning satellite: test cables, 3D printer material, electrical adapters, and more.

Testing CubeSats requires specialized equipment. Is our solar panel outputting the correct power? Your donation may enable us to perform a critical space-qualifying test.

Some materials cannot be launched into space because they won't burn up on re-entry! Help us with the resources to make CubeSat components out of the allowable materials.

CubeSat design requires many expensive simulation and design software tools. Use of some such tools, even after student discounts, can be $500 or more each year.

A single battery bank for a CubeSat can be $1000 or more! Stuff that is reliable and qualified enough to go into orbit is costly. Your donation can help us purchase the component subsystems that build up a CubeSat.

There are many CubeSat subsystems, like power, attitude control, and communications. Most of these cost several thousand dollars. Please help us fund these critical subsystems! No CubeSat can launch without them!

We can't build only one CubeSat and launch it. We need to prove to NASA we can and will build TWO! One gets launched and the other stays on Earth where it serves as a "debugging" twin in case things go wrong in space!
