The components have already been arriving and are nearly ready to begin testing.\u00a0 The science teams have already begun designing systems and PCBs that will perform the experiments. \u00a0The current component status can be seen in the table below.\u00a0 Each science team at WVU has been working diligently to meet the delivery date at the end of this year so that testing can begin.<\/p>\n

The anatomy of the spacecraft is depicted below.\u00a0 The chassis selected is the Innovative Solutions In Space three unit design.\u00a0 This allows for each unit, or cube, to be assembled independently before full spacecraft integration.\u00a0 The antenna is also specially designed to fit the chassis, depicted on what is actually the bottom of the spacecraft, even though it is on top in the picture.\u00a0 Having the antennas on the underside of the spacecraft allows for use of the extra space, nicknamed the tuna can due to its size, in the launcher to house the GPS antenna.<\/p>\n
