There are a number of ways to start building a satellite. Most focus on either the bus or the payload, and bend the other to fit. We talk about a bit of each of these methods here.


In this series of classes I will discuss the basics of satellite design. The goal is to understand all of the basic systems in satellites, to the point of having a starting point to build a satellite, such as a Cubesat. Feel free to talk with others working their way through on my discord, https://discord.gg/qnn4bmM , in the #satellite room.
