The year 2021 is one of the most important ones for ASAT and the Rocketry Project, as the team had the opportunity to participate in two rocket competitions, the Spaceport America Cup 2021 Virtual in June and the European Rocketry Read more…
During 2021, ASAT’s team managed not only to be accepted, but also to distinct in the world’s largest interuniversity rocketry competition, Spaceport America Cup (SAC) 2021. The competition’s goal is to design, manufacture and launch a rocket at an apogee Read more…
The Solar Energy Management (SEM) sub-system of the Aeronautics Project was founded in April 2020 and aims at building the necessary photovoltaic system that will meet the energy requirements of our Solar UAV – Phoenix. It is also responsible for Read more…
In 2020, Rocketry managed to face the sudden changes and achieve its goals. Its members worked on giving the best results and they continue with even more energy and new data to develop and improve. The past year, a great Read more…
Aeronautics has entered 2021 with a more dynamic and versatile personality, while its enhanced capabilities allow the project to set a list of S.M.A.R.T and exciting goals. First of all, the project has managed to arm itself with numerous, new Read more…
Solar UAV Aeronautics project continues to thrive and leads to innovation! Inspired by the vision of the previous generation of project members, Aeronautics presents the inception of the design of a pioneering Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). This particular UAV will be Read more…
Avionics Subsystem The Avionics subsystem is responsible for implementing four different tasks. Their initial remit is Avionics bay, where the flight computer is located. Following is the GPS bay, whose job is to find the location where the rocket has Read more…
On-Board Computer Subsystem The On-Board Computer (OBC) subsystem is considered to be the “brain” of the satellite. It will be primarily responsible for coordinating and performing the basic functions required for the operation of the nanosatellite (CubeSat) as well as Read more…
Aerodynamics Subsystem The Aerodynamics subteam is responsible for the design of the aerodynamic surfaces of the rocket. The goal is to design a rocket that reaches the desired apogee while remaining stable throughout the flight. To achieve that the subteam Read more…
Structural Subsystem In CubeSats, structural engineers are trained to design the ‘bones and muscles’ that create the form and shape of the nanosatellite. In more detail, for AcubeSAT, the subteam members had to carefully design both the exterior and the Read more…
