ALL-STAR: Agile Low-cost Laboratory for Space Technology Acceleration and Research – ELaNa V

Students from the University of Colorado at Boulder building the ALL-STAR mission that consists of a low-cost 3U CubeSat bus capable of supporting operation of a variety of space-based research payloads. It will be deployed with the THEIA (Telescopic High-definition Earth Imaging Apparatus) optical payload that images Earth in full color in order to verify all capabilities of the ALL-STAR bus, providing a proof of concept. Launched by NASA’s CubeSat Launch Initiative on the ELaNa V mission as an auxiliary payload aboard the SpaceX-3 Cargo Resupply Mission on April 18, 2014.
