| Description | A 2U CubeSat. ASAA-Sat will insure a Cartography of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) This project is an agreement with the LAM and Aix-Marseille University/Nanolab Academy (AMU/Nanolab Academy agreement signed since 2016), which included this project, since its beginning, as a project with the goal of developing from scratch a nanosatellite only made by students. The CASAA-Sat project involved more than 200 students in multiple specialties, including around thirty in an end-of-term 6-month internship from Masters/Bachelor studies and final year of engineering school. The objectives of CASAA-Sat are to evaluate the radiation dose deposits, which one presume highest above the Brazil in the SAA, correlate them with the local magnetic field and with the predicted apparitions of the auroras at the poles. We can allow, depending on batteries conditions, to build the different measurements (magnetic field, radiation measurements, photo of the poles) with the interested amateur operators to try to better cartography of the whole SAA. |
