Prepares students from the University of Wurzburg Germany to launch a satellite into space at an altitude of about six hundred miles, in a series of leading research in the field of technology designs small size, where no more than the length of the moon, which comes in the form of a small cube with solar cells shiny ten centimeters as no more than his weight on Alcleogram.
And is expected to be the moon, "Yoffie -3" which is a practical training for students at the University of Wurzburg, to the base of the rocket fire in Yasny Russia's southern end of March / March, but it is still not clear when it will be launched into space.
The said project leader Klaus Schilling, an official at the Institute of Computer Science "when Yoffie reaches orbit, we will start scientific measurements that we want to develop the best possible way." And carry out an acronym for "experimental satellite of the University of Würzburg."
He added that he would be on the young researchers to wait until just the right time which looped reimburse above Würzburg, and we will send all the data that has been collected from the moon to the University, as new orders will be transferred to the Moon over a period of time a period of ten minutes.
Turn regarded doctoral candidate Stefan Bush and co-research with the team since 2008 but is currently working as a project coordinator Yoffie, "This is an amazing opportunity to work creatively."
Bush added, which includes his ten-member students holding a master's degree and bachelor's as well as candidates for doctoral aviation sector, they feel more confident somewhat with Yoffie, where they can do research new work includes multiple disciplines, stressing that they do not build parts of the Moon artificial, but they are building a full moon.
The information will be sent via frequency waves are also used for the reception of radio broadcasts, and will be able to cube and students connected for almost three months.
And the draft reimburse much appreciated at the international level, has also been awarded Schilling Award worth about three million dollars by the research program of the European Union, and will help this amount to provide the necessary means to conduct research until 2018, which means that there will be research on the construction of four satellites other.
Noteworthy that there are two small cubes from a cube University of Wurzburg already orbiting in space, but they are no longer Earslan signals where the last signal was sent in 2010.
