Missions
Our current mission, CHESS, aims to send two nano-satellites (CubeSat) into Earth orbit. The twin satellites will carry out multiple scientific experiments and technology demonstrations. At the same time, we are building our own ground segment with an UHF antenna already in service and an X-Band antenna that will start receiving data starting from February.
