FramSat-1.5 is one step closer to launch 🚀 Last week, our team traveled to KDA in Horten to perform vibration testing on FramSat-1.5. The test went exactly as planned. A big thank you to @kongsbergasa for hosting us and supporting this important milestone! 📸 @taralinnea

Did you know our BioSat project is not only a 3U CubeSat but also a FlatSat? We visited Inission’s workshop to assemble and solder the PCBs in our satellite, taking another step closer to space. We also used their X-ray equipment to inspect our work, which gave us valuable insight into soldering quality and future improvements. A big thank you to @inissionlokken for the support and access to your facilities. The BioSat mission has two phases 🌱 Plant Phase: growing Arabidopsis thaliana plant in space 📡 SDR Phase: using a Software Defined Radio to measure amateur radio frequencies after the plant’s lifecycle The FlatSat is necessary for integrating and testing our subsystems outside of the main satellite, making them easier to debug before flight. 📷Photo credit: @evenfinnoy #satellite #ntnu #orbit

Only one day to go until the FramSat launch window opens 🚀 While we wait, we had the pleasure of visiting Andøya Space, where we were given a tour by @jose_andoyaspace of their facilities and got a closer look at the exciting work happening there. A big thank you to Norway Spacehub for generously hosting us, once again, and allowing Orbit to use their facilities as our base. Their support has been invaluable in lowering the barrier for student participation in space projects like this. Now it’s almost time, and we’re ready. Photo Credit: @ruske.sara.01

We are only a few days away form the Launch attempt of our FramSat-1! 💙 On the 23rd Orbit will excitedly await the satellite leaving to the sky. In the meantime we would like to share a teaser from the FramSat documentary ✨ Director: @ruske.sara.01 Music: «Space Time Continuum» by Jon Shuemaker Source: https://lnkd.in/era_VJSU Licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0)

Today, first-year students in our Sub-Orbital team fought through pouring rain at a farm in Åfjord to release their small satellite prototype into the stratosphere 🛰️ Unfortunately, it did not go as planned. Upon letting go of the satellite, the line attaching the balloon to the satellite snapped. “I’m actually very happy. I mean it. Everything else we did worked: the payload, the circuit boards, the code, the GPS, the schedule. In my heart and soul, this was a successful launch.” —Jonatan Holme Forus, Sub-Orbital team lead Orbit has now received support for a new helium tank, giving our first-year students the chance to make another launch attempt. We can’t wait! 🔬 CyanoSat is a stratospheric payload designed to study how gold nanoparticles affect radiolysis in aqueous solutions under UV exposure. 💙 The project is supported by Stratos, who are also sending a piece of their chocolate 30,000 meters into the air as part of their 90th-anniversary celebration. 📸 @kolstadmagnus #orbitntnu #ntnu #orbit #so
