Summary
Nutrition label

88% Informative

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.

CubeSats typically focus on a single, specific scientific goal whether discovering exoplanets or measuring the size of an asteroid.

Satellites large and small are rapidly becoming the backbone of space research.

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.

It will be the smallest CubeSat to perform its own independent mission in interplanetary space.

The swift progress and substantial investments already made in CubeSat missions could help make humans a multiplanetary species.
