About
The NST-3 is a miniature star tracker developed by TY-Space for CubeSats and other nanosatellites. It provides autonomous inertial attitude determination for platforms where envelope and mass budgets are tight. The unit is derived from TY-Space’s larger NST-4 star tracker and differs from it by a shorter optical baffle and reduced mass of less than 165 grams, which allows accommodation in compact avionics stacks and on small optical benches. Offered through CubeSatShop with pricing and lead time on request.
