A standard-size cubesat is tiny, about 4 pounds ( roughly 2 kilograms ) Some are larger, maybe four times the standard size, but others are no more than a pound.
Satellites large and small are rapidly becoming the backbone of space research.
The savings of time and money means more frequent and diverse missions along with less risk.
ASTERIA became the smallest space instrument ever to detect an exoplanet.
HERA , scheduled to launch in October 2024 , will deploy the European Space Agency’s first deep-space cubesats to visit the Didymos asteroid system.
The M-Argo satellite, with a launch planned for 2025 , will study the shape, mass and surface minerals of a soon-to-be-named asteroid.
