Since 2012, SpaceX has been working on a reusable rocket family, now called Starship, that…

On December 2019, FossaSat-1 was successfully launched into space, becoming our first case study to reach orbit. FossaSat-1 is a 5-cm sided PocketQube designed to create a global low-cost IoT network. All systems are operational to this day. However, the superior panels did not deploy, preventing the folded antennas from deploying as well. Nonetheless, the data packets received so far have been conclusive enough to validate our thermal analyses. FossaSat-1 is equipped with three temperature sensors, one on the outside and two on the inside. TEXT is attached to the superior panel, TCPU belongs to the onboard computer, and TBATT measures the battery temperature. It is worth mentioning that the telemetry from TCPU has been discarded, as Fossa Systems recommended, because of a lack of data integrity. The thermal analyses carried out by Radian Systems comprised a hot case and cold case, derived from the solar irradiance and FossaSat-1 operational modes. They were simulated assuming the deployment of the folded elements…
