Technology has made it possible for satellites in the shape of small cubes measuring 10 cm (about 4”) per side and weighing 1 kg (2.2 lbs) to orbit the Earth and other planets. These satellites perform many of the duties of their conventional satellites at less than 2% of the cost. Small countries, private enterprises, and universities worldwide are players in space exploration. We tell the story. (S6 Ep 13)
