Additional information PW-Sat2

Test two innovative engineering solutions for deorbitation system and sun sensor device. Main experiment ? a 2 x 2 m deorbit sail will dramatically decrease the lifetime of the satellite?s orbit after mission end (planned 40 days). There will also be a custom designed Sun sensor consisting of four specially aligned walls with ambient light sensors.
