FerrAS (Ferrofluid Application Study) is the continuation of PAPELL and looks at the usage of ferrofluids to find solutions for technical problems in space. With various experiments we have applied in the Überflieger 2 programm to hopefully test in micro-gravity on the ISS.

SOURCE

SOURCE

SOURCE (Stuttgart Operated University Research CubeSat for Evaluation and Education) is a 3U+ CubeSat of KSat and the Institute of Space Systems (IRS). The CubeSat will conduct technology demonstrations, Earth and meteor observation and atmospheric re-entry measurements. The project is currently in Phase D and just concluded its environmental hardware testing. The launch is planned for next year.

BUBBLE

BUBBLE

BUBBLE (BUoyancy Balloon Bus Lifted Experiments) is our high altitude balloon program.
We provide the bus system for the gondola to fly various payloads from KSat and external payloads. The launch and recovery is organized by us.

ALL PROJECTS

ALL PROJECTS

Since 2014 we are working on a wide variety of projects. For our new members we regularly hold CanSat-Challenges. Our BUBBLE high-altitude-balloons fly up to 35 km into the stratosphere. Multiple of our experiments were carried to suborbital space on  REXUS rockets. Our highest-flying projects even reach orbit: SOURCE is our first satellite and PAPELL successfully operated on the International Space Station.
