PcSat2 byggs det fr fullt p. Fljande meddelande kommer frn Bob, WB4APR.
PCSAT2 this weekend passed final Outgassing Tests for Space Station and Space Shuttle and is ready for launch on the first shuttle return to flight (next year).
These outgassing specs are some of the most stringent in the space program. Interestingly, all of our parts were off-the-shelf Kantronics TNC s and Hamtronics TX/RX including original plastic parts.
The rate achieved on the TQCM test was 5*E-13 grams per second. The test chamber itself was able to get down to 2*E-14.
