 Students from the Thomas Jefferson
High School for Science and Technology in Alexandria, Virginia, have spent the past seven years building a CubeSat that will hitch a ride on Orbital Sciences' Minotaur 1 rocket tonight. The so-called TJ3 Sat will enter orbit where it will then send and receive data; some of the data will even come from the public who can
submit texts through the project's website. If approved, the text will be beamed up to the CubeSat, converted into an audio file, and broadcast back to Earth over an amateur radio frequency. The satellite sounds pretty simple, but
remember: It was built by teenagers.

All in all, the Minotaur 1 rocket will carry a record 28 CubeSats, including the one from Jefferson High. It's a clear indication that we're entering a new era of fast, cheap, and hopefully-not-out-of-control satellite technology, where even the average citizen can conduct experiments in space. The tiny CubeSats are small
enough to fit in the palm of your hand
and can even be controlled with a smartphone . You don't even have to build them yourself. There's a company that actually rents its satellite to anyone
for just $250 a week

menurut yang wa baca satelit ini mempunyai daya (sumber energi) yang cukup untuk 2 minggu setelah itu akan jatuh (terbakar ketika  masuk dalam atmosfer) ke bumi
