We amazingly got another ride to space! And since we this satellite fit between OreSat0, our first satellite, and OreSat1, our original satellite, we of course named it Oresat0.5. We handed off OreSat0.5 to ExoLaunch, our launch services provider, on May 27th, 2024, and it was deployed into a 510 km sun synchronous low earth orbit on August 16th, 2024, on board SpaceX Transporter-11.

OreSat0.5 is a 2U CubeSat that is a technology demonstration for two of our primary systems: (1) the attitude determination and control system (ADCS) of the modular, expandable, and open source OreSat bus, and (2) the Cirrus Flux Camera (CFC) short wave infrared (SWIR) sensor.We're now waiting for an August 16th launch on
