$10
Current Sensor
Your donation will monitor power input into our CubeSat, allowing us to determine how much solar power we're getting and help the spacecraft know when to switch between active and sleep modes.
$20
Magnetorquer Drivers
Your donation will allow our spacecraft to detumble and orient with Earth's magnetic field using a novel attitude control system.
$30
Solar Charger
Your donation will power our spacecraft, connecting our solar panels to our batteries.
$40
Flight Computer
Your donation will control the entire spacecraft, from sensors to communications to attitude control to light sail deployment!
$50
Iridium Radio Antenna
Your donation will allow our spacecraft to receive and transmit messages.
$100
Spacecraft Batteries
Your donation will keep our spacecraft alive, warm and toasty, when unlit by the sun for 45 minutes at a time, half an orbit.
$250
Teflon-Insulated Wiring
Your donation will supply NASA standard space-rated wires to connect all our CubeSat components.
$400
Chipsat Production
Your donation will support the production of Cornell's world renowned spacecraft-on-a-chip flight computers for a novel application aboard our light sail.
$500
Communications Modules
Your donation will allow us to bypass the need for a traditional ground station by going through the Iridium network. We will be able to talk to our spacecraft from anywhere in the world using only a web interface!
$1,000
Vibration Testing
Your donation will allow us to prove that we are flight ready and able to withstand the immense stresses of a rocket launch.
$1,000
Circuit Boards & Solar Panels
Your donation will provide the heart and lifeblood of the spacecraft.
$2,000
CubeSat Structure
Made from space-grade Accura Bluestone, this high-strength 3D printed material enables a customizable structure capable of surviving the drastic temperature ranges of low Earth orbit. Machined and anodized 6061 grade aluminum CubeSat rails will allow for a smooth interface with and ejection from the ISS CubeSat Deployer.
