About CubeSat Handbook: From Mission Design To Operations
Product Description CubeSat Handbook: From Mission Design to Operations is the first book solely devoted to the design, manufacturing, and in-orbit operations of CubeSats. Beginning with an historical overview from CubeSat co-inventors Robert Twiggs and Jordi Puig-Suari, the book is divided into 6 parts with contributions from international experts in the area of small satellites and CubeSats. It covers topics such as standard interfaces, on-board & ground software, industry standards in terms of control algorithms and sub-systems, systems engineering, standards for AITV (assembly, integration, testing and validation) activities, and launch regulations. This comprehensive resource provides all the information needed for engineers and developers in industry and academia to successfully design and launch a CubeSat mission. Review Presents an overview of the design, manufacturing and in-orbit operations of CubeSat missions About the Author Chantal Cappelletti is currently an Assistant Professor at University of Nottingham (UK), where she is affiliated with the Nottingham Geospatial Institute. Previously, she was an Assistant Professor at the University of Brasilia (Brazil) and a visiting researcher at Morehead State University (USA). She is the cofounder of the Italian company GAUSS Srl. She has led 6 satellite projects in Italy (UNISAT program and others) and in Brazil (SERPENS, TuPOD). Her main research interests are: small satellites, biomedical research in space, space debris, attitude control and astrodynamics. She is member of the International Academy of Astronautics. Simone Battistini received his BSc (2006) and MSc (2009) degrees in Control System Engineering and a PhD in Aerospace Engineering from Sapienza Università di Roma (Italy). Dr Battistini is a Senior Lecturer in Aerospace Engineering at Sheffield Hallam University (UK). He has been working in the field of Aerospace Engineering both at academic and industrial level, having served on the faculty of the University of Brasília (Brazil) and on the staff of MBDA Italy. In 2017 he was a visiting professor at the University of Vigo (Spain). He was the principal or co-principal investigator on 4 projects concerning aerospace systems funded by Brazilian public institutions. His main research interests are related to guidance, navigation and control of aerospace systems. Dr. Benjamin K. Malphrus is Professor of Space Science at Morehead State University where he also directs the University’s Space Science Center. He served as project director of the design and construction of the 13 M Morehead Radio Telescope and more recently the 21 M Space Tracking Antenna operated by the center. He has served on the scientific staff of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, as visiting scientist at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility and on the faculty of universities including the University of South Carolina and West Virginia University. He is author of a book on the evolution of instrumentation in radio astronomy. He has initiated and participated in numerous educational initiatives including the development of space science and astrophysics degree programs at Morehead State University. Dr. Malphrus has served as Principal Investigator on several nanosatellite missions including KySat-1, KySat-2, the Cosmic X-Ray Background Nanosatellite (CXBN), CXBN-2, TechSat-1, DM-7, and Lunar IceCube, and has had various roles on other microsatellite missions. Seven of these satellite missions have flown in space to date. He currently leads an effort (supported by NASA’s Advanced Exploration Systems) to upgrade the 21 meter ground station at Morehead State to become the NASA Deep Space Network node for interplanetary smallsats. He and his team was awarded a $24million program by NASA in 2016 to develop and send a space probe (Lunar IceCube) to the Moon to investigate the transport physics of lunar volatiles including water ice. Lunar IceCube will launch on the maiden voyage of NASA’
