St. Thomas More Cathedral School First Step in “Mission Possible” Program
Surveillance Aerosat Launch

 
St. Thomas More Cathedral School (STM) will take its first step in the Mission Possible Project – STM-1 — by launching the surveillance aerosat.  On May 22, 2013 at 9am in the school’s parking lot, Student Mission Specialists will conduct a series of high altitude tests of the CubeSat.  Our mission is four fold:  the CubeSat will be lifted to an altitude of approximately 300 feet by the surveillance aerosat; the CubeSat will operate under its own power;  the telemetry and command link be established and verified which is the communication between the satellite and ground station; and  the onboard cameras — both the Earth Observation Camera and the Asteroid Location Camera — will take test images.
