CUBES stands for Creating Understanding and Broadening Education through Satellites. The goal of the project is to allow high school students to build a small satellite, or CubeSat. Merritt Island High School (MIHS) was selected to partner with NASA, and California Polytechnic State University (Cal-Poly), to build a CubeSat. The objective of the mission is to collect flight data to better characterize maximum predicted environments inside the CubeSat launcher, Poly-Picosatellite Orbital Deplorer (P-POD), while attached to the launch vehicle. The MIHS CubeSat team will apply to the NASA CubeSat Launch Initiative, which provides opportunities for small satellite development teams to secure launch slots on upcoming expendable launch vehicle missions. The MIHS team is working to achieve a test launch, or proof of concept flight aboard a suborbital launch vehicle in early 2013.
