| Georgia Tech CubeSats, Push the Limit of Small Satellite Technologies |
Georgia Tech has put another small satellite into low-Earth orbit. OrCa2b will enhance space domain awareness and improve the tracking of resident space objects (RSOs), such as debris and other satellites.
The satellite is the first of two CubeSats that will make up the Orbital Calibration 2 Mission (OrCa2a and OrCa2b), which will allow researchers to better track objects in Earth’s orbit from both the ground and from orbit.
