The Artemis CubeSat kit is comprised of three primary subsystems: Avionics, Mechanical, and Software, each carefully designed to address crucial aspects of our comprehensive system.
Within the Avionics subsystem, focus revolves around the design, implementation, and rigorous testing of diverse electronic circuit boards residing within the CubeSat. This intricate process ensures that every individual component seamlessly integrates into the cohesive whole, harmonizing to fulfill the system's overarching objectives.
The Mechanical subsystem takes charge of the satellite's physical structure, undertaking the crucial task of crafting a robust housing. This protective enclosure is designed to shield and contain all electronic components, meticulously considering the challenges posed by the demanding space environment.
Meanwhile, the Software subsystem delves into the operational intricacies of the satellite, covering crucial aspects such as communication with the ground station. This subsystem acts as a vital conduit between the satellite and Earth, orchestrating seamless interaction.
For a comprehensive understanding of how each subsystem intricately meshes within the Artemis Kit, detailed information can be found by following the links provided below. Each section offers an in-depth perspective on these indispensable components within the Artemis CubeSat.
In essence, the Artemis CubeSat comprises three interwoven systems: Avionics, Mechanical, and Software. The Avionics system seamlessly integrates key subsystems such as the On-Board Computer System (OBCS), Electrical Power System (EPS), and COMMs (Communications), alongside the Thermal Control System (TCS), Attitude Determination and Control Systems (ADCS), and Payload. The Mechanical system provides a robust structural foundation for the space raft, while the Software component encompasses both the flight software executing on the satellite and the test software, ensuring comprehensive operational capabilities.
