Spacecraft data:

Description:

• The satellites were constructed using a 3D printer for the structure. Although the satellites are based on the 3U Cubesat standard, they will not be released using a deployer, but will be released by a kosmonaut during a spacewalk. Therefore they are fitted with a handle. The payload consists of an experiment to achieve self-organization of autonomous vehicles to assess the possibility of including in the grouping more satellites. The secondary objective is to measure density of the vacuum via the vacuum gauge developed at SWSU.

Mission details:

• On Thursday, July 17, 2017 ISS Exp 52 Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin, RN3FI and Flight Engineer Sergey Ryazanskiy manually deployed 5 satellites during a spacewalk. These satellites (Tomsk-TPU-120, Tanyusha-SWSU 1 & 2, TNS-0 Nº2 and TS-530-Zerkalo) were deployed from the Pirs airlock module of the International Space Station.
• Three of the satellites carry amateur radio payloads, Tanyusha-SWSU 1 & 2 on 437.050 MHz with either 9k6 FSK or FM voice announcements and Tomsk-TPU-120 on 437.025 MHz with FM voice announcements.
