About: ESTCube-2

An Entity of Type: societal event, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

ESTCube-2 is a three-unit (1 U standard dimension 100x100x113.5 mm) CubeSat built by the Estonian Student Satellite Foundation. This is the second satellite in the ESTCube program (the first was ESTCube-1). The satellite will be completed in the first half of 2022 and is scheduled to be launched in the end of 2022 from Kourou, French Guiana, with the European Space Agency's Vega-C launch vehicle. The planned altitude of the ESTCube-2 orbit is 564 kilometers from the ground and the speed of the satellite in orbit is about 7.6 km/s.

dbo:abstract
  • ESTCube-2 is a three-unit (1 U standard dimension 100x100x113.5 mm) CubeSat built by the Estonian Student Satellite Foundation. This is the second satellite in the ESTCube program (the first was ESTCube-1). The satellite will be completed in the first half of 2022 and is scheduled to be launched in the end of 2022 from Kourou, French Guiana, with the European Space Agency's Vega-C launch vehicle. The development of the satellite started in January 2014, but the necessary team and funding were not obtained until 2016. ESTCube-2, like ESTCube-1, is an educational-scientific project that aims to give university and high school students the opportunity to participate in the creation and completion of a space mission. Dozens of diploma theses are involved in the construction and development of the satellite. The planned altitude of the ESTCube-2 orbit is 564 kilometers from the ground and the speed of the satellite in orbit is about 7.6 km/s. Partners are the University of Tartu, Tartu Observatory, Finnish Meteorological Institute, GomSpace, Milrem Robotics, Foresail, Dresden University of Technology, Captain Corrosion, European Space Agency, European Commission (en)
