Cubesat investigating Atmospheric Density Response to Extreme Driving (CADRE)

CADRE is a risk reducing precursor of the future Armada mission, which endeavors to characterize the dynamics of the upper thermosphere using the WINCS instrument. 

Role as Structures Team lead and ADCS researcher:
  • CubeSat bus design, rapid prototyping, FEA, system integration
  • Analysis and simulation of orbit disturbances
  • Optimal design of custom magnetorquers
