About
NanoAvionics’ M16P 16U CubeSat has been a catalyst for many Earth observation companies, including Sen’s mission to stream 4K video of Earth from space, Satlantis’ multiple meter-class resolution Earth observation, and greenhouse gas monitoring spacecraft, among others. The payload volume of the 16U CubeSats, modular subsystems, and deployable solar panels for increased power generation coupled with a precise ADCS system and algorithms have proven M16P suitable for many applications in national security, communications, or even quantum key distribution. NanoAvionics can provide systems engineering, electrical, and mechanical support for payload development or supply an entire satellite integrated with partners’ remote sensing or software-defined radio payloads, taking advantage of the payload capacity offered by the 16U small satellite buses.
