📋 Project Overview

The AeroSat-1 mission represents our most ambitious project to date, involving the complete development lifecycle of a 3U CubeSat designed for atmospheric research. This comprehensive project encompasses satellite design, payload development, ground station operations, and mission management.

Our team is working on cutting-edge miniaturized instruments capable of measuring atmospheric parameters including temperature profiles, humidity levels, and trace gas concentrations. The satellite will also serve as an educational platform, allowing students to gain hands-on experience with space systems engineering.

The mission timeline spans 18 months from initial design to launch readiness, with extensive testing phases including thermal vacuum testing, vibration testing, and comprehensive systems integration verification.
