Abstract

The Delft University of Technology has been working on Delfi-PQ, a 3 P P ocketQube d eveloped b y Aerospace Engineering students during their education. The satellite, while being only 50x50x178 mm and having a mass of 545 g, shares the same problems and requirements of bigger satellites. This paper presents the design concept, development, and testing of Delfi-PQ to help other teams in their development. All the combined information will help to generate a big picture for institutions to start their own small satellite mission.
