Sex CubeSats på gång i mars

Då DELFI-C3 skjuts upp (planerat i mars) kommer även fem andra CubeSats upp med viss amatörradio ombord. Det blir alltså sex totoalt. En summering finns att läsa här:

 

Six University Cubesat/Amateur Radio satellites are planned for launch in early March, 2008 from India.  Full satellite information for each is too lengthy for complete coverage here.  Below is a summary of the satellites and their frequencies and operating modes (if known).
