PocketQube
A PocketQube is a type of miniaturized satellite for space research that usually has a size of 5 cm cubed, has a mass of no more than 180 grams, and typically uses commercial off-the-shelf components for its electronics.
Beginning in 2009, Morehead State University (MSU) and Kentucky Space developed the PocketQube specifications to help universities worldwide to perform space science and exploration. While the bulk of development comes from academia, several (companies ) build PocketQube, such as (Stadako ) and (PocketQube Shop ). PocketQube projects have even been the subject of Kickstarter campaigns.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://gigaom.com/2013/10/01/kickstarter-campaign-will-help-you-build-a-satellite-for-less-than-600/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2013-09/23/pocketqube )〕 The PocketQube format is also popular with amateur radio satellite builders.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://amsat-uk.org/2013/11/22/50sat-eagle2-pocketqube-operational/ )〕
== Design ==
The PocketQube specification accomplishes several high-level goals. Simplification makes it possible to design and produce a workable satellite at low cost. Encapsulation of the launcher-payload interface takes away the prohibitive amount of managerial work that would previously be required for mating a piggyback satellite with its launcher. Unification among payloads and launchers enables quick exchanges of payloads and utilization of launch opportunities on short notice. PocketQube is similar to Cubesat in this regard.
The standard was first proposed by Professor Bob Twiggs of (Morehead State University) and the intention was for a satellite which could fit in your pocket, hence the name PocketQube.
