In addition to various scientific instruments, RISESAT is also equipped with a laser communication terminal VSOTA, developed...
The Space Robotics Laboratory (SRL) of Tohoku University has developed three 50kg Micro-satellites. The first satellite “SPRITE-SAT” has been successfully launched into Earth orbit, and also been operated. The flight model of the second satellite “RISING-2” has been assembled and its software development is now finalized, being ready for the launch planned in next year. The third satellite “RISESAT”...
