CubeSat:
The Miniature Marvel
The OASA CubeSat: a compact, cube-shaped marvel, is a miniature satellite that punches above its weight. Sized at just 10cm x 10cm x 10cm and lightweight, this small wonder is the heart of our mission. It holds the potential to transform mindsets, enable more space exploration and expand the economy, from monitoring climate change to mitigating space debris. It will change your understanding of space and your potential to make an impact.
Mission Milestones:
In Numbers
