| Description | The purposes of the CubeSat NB’s 2U CubeSat, named VIOLET, are student education, educational research also known as technical investigations, radio amateur use, and radio amateur education. Payloads on the satellite will perform the functions described below. The radio amateur purposes of VIOLET include allowing amateurs to communicate with other amateurs around the world in VHF, UHF and S bands as well as motivating the use of the S band amateur radio frequencies. VIOLET's mission is to study space weather, stabilized under passive magnetic attitude control, with hysteresis rods, in low Earth orbit, near the peak of the eleven-year solar cycle, obtaining the voltage and current from its four photovoltaic panels, and two internal temperature sensors. | VIOLET's mission is to study space weather, stabilized under passive magnetic attitude control, with hysteresis rods, in low Earth orbit, near the peak of the eleven-year solar cycle, obtaining the voltage and current from its four photovoltaic panels, and two internal temperature sensors. |
