  • BRAC Onnesha Launches Into Space 5 June, 2017 12:00 AM
    BRAC Onnesha launches into space 5 June, 2017 12:00 AM BRAC Onnesha, the nation’s first nano-satellite, was launched by SpaceX, FALCON 9 Rocket by its CRS-11 mission to ISS (International Space Station) early Sunday, reports UNB. The launch took place from Kennedy Space Center, Florida around 3:07am (Bangladesh time) and was the 100th launch from Launch Pad 39A, said a press release. The same “launch site” was used for Apollo-11 lunar mission, which took humans to achieve its first footprint on the Moon. Falcon 9 is a two-stage rocket designed and manufactured by SpaceX for reliable and safe transportation of such satellite missions. BRAC Onnesha is now on board Dragon, a spacecraft, which is expected to dock at the ISS on Monday, and from there BRAC Onnesha will be deployed into earth’s orbit by ISS astronauts to begin its operation in a few weeks (expected to be by the end of June but no confirmation received yet). The first launching attempt on 2 June 2017 failed due to bad weather condition, including lightning, near Kennedy Space Center, Florida, USA, from where today’s launch successfully took place. Through today’s launch Bangladesh has entered space for the first time. The historic event was watched through NASA’s telecast through https://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html#public Earlier, on 8 February, BRACU became the first Bangladeshi educational institution to get its very own nano-satellite, developed and assembled by three of its students - Abdulla Hil Kafi, Raihana Shams Antara and Maisun Ibn Monowar - using technology and facilities of a Japanese university.

  • A Statistical and Personal History of University-Class Satellites
    SSC18-WKVIII-03 Reliving 24 Years in the Next 12 Minutes: A Statistical and Personal History of University-Class Satellites Michael Swartwout Saint Louis University 3450 Lindell Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63103; 314-977-8214 [email protected] ABSTRACT In 2018, university-class satellites -- spacecraft built by university students for the express purpose of student training -- are widely accepted as a means to recruit undergraduate students into the space workforce, train them effectively before graduation and retain them in the field after graduation. Hundreds of undergraduates at dozens of schools around the world have directly contributed to missions that operated on-orbit. The spacecraft themselves are capable of performance research-grade science or demonstrate new enabling technologies. This was not always the case. For the first forty years of spaceflight, there were exceedingly few university-class missions; those that flew were expensive, marginally-performing and had modest success rates. What changed? Why are university-class missions now commonplace? And, with respect to on-orbit success, are they as good (or as bad) as rumor and hearsay make them out to be? In this paper and all-too-brief talk, the history of university-class spacecraft will be discussed, with an emphasis on the types of missions and their success rates. Beginning in 1994 (the author's first time attending this conference, as a wide-eyed student) and reaching through to 2018 (the author's 21st, now as a world-weary professor) a statistical and anecdotal review of
