HackSat One is due to launch on 9th December 2013. This page summarises areas we need to work on for Hackney Space Centre prior to launch.
Mast & Antenna
- Making mast trailer operational
- Steerable antenna
- Control software for antenna
- Test with ISS and FUNcube
Signal Decoding
- GNU Radio automation
- Borg and sister servers
- Increasing speed of FFT (GPU? AVX?)
Mission Control
- Tracking ISS and HackSat Orbit
- Communications with other ground stations and main KickSat mission control
- Visualising decoded data from our and other ground stations, e.g. spinning 3D model of sprite
- Physically building out area in Hackspace with monitors, comms etc.
- Where does this go physically in the Space?
Science!
- What can we learn from the data?
- Sensors: temperature, magnetic field, gyroscope (spin rate), uptime (solar power available)
- ...
Publishing
- Make data from our ground station available online
- Twitter feed from HackSat One
Launch Party
- Video feed of Falcon 9 launch
- Video link to main mission control for KickSat
- ...
Miscellaneous
- Brew a commemorative HackSat beer
