BIRDS5-Procedures_Reports

Assembly and test procedures and test reports for the BIRDS5 satellite

About the BIRDS5 Program:

The Mission Statement of the Project is:

Build Uganda and Zimbabwe’s first satellite while improving the standardized bus system for future missions, giving continuity to the satellite development of Japan and previous missions from BIRDS-1,2,3 and 4.

The project is led by Kyushu Institute of Technology in Japan and involves students from Uganda, Zimbabwe, Trinidad and Tobago, and Japan.

Satellite Names: Taka (Japan), ZIMSAT-1 (Zimbabwe) and PearlAfricaSat-1 (Uganda)

Stakeholders: Uganda Science, Technology and Innovation Office of the President, Zimbabwe National Geospatial And Space Agency (ZINGSA), and Kyushu Institute of Technology (Kyutech) for Japan.

Project duration: 2018-2022

CubeSat: 1U (10x10x10) cm3, 2U (10x10x20) cm3

Weight: 1.13kg

Launch Date: 21st November 2022

BIRDS-5 has 5 main missions in total; attitude visualisation, Imaging classification Mission (IMG-CLS) and Store & Forward (SF- WARD), Particle Instrument for Nano-satellite(PINO), APRS-Digipeater mission (APRS-DP)
