The purpose of this final report is to provide a summary of the University Nanosat 4 Program's AggieSatI. Nanosat 4 was a joint program among AFOSR, AIAA, NASA GSFC, and AFRL/VS. The objectives of the program were to educate and train the future workforce through a national student satellite design and fabrication competition, and to enable small satellite R&D, payload development, integration, and flight test. Nanosat 4 had two distinct stages. The first part was a design and build phase involving 11 Universities, which lasted two years and culminated in the AIAA Student Satellite Flight Competition in March 2007. The competition winner was to be integrated with the AFRL Internal Cargo Unit (ICU) for flight on the Space Shuttle. The second part consists of construction and test of the flight unit and culminates in launch of the Nanosat. The selected Nanosat from Cornell is expected to be flight- ready by September 2007.
